Only if they don't request to be paid back later for said rent. Otherwise, that's just giving rich people free money.

- wmf 7y agoPeople who can't pay rent now are unlikely to be able to ever pay it back later. It's probably better for everyone to just write it off.
- cultus 7y agoThat would probably be better, but isn't happening. I think these landlords should have planned ahead and had six months of emergency funds saved up, just like McDonald's employees are supposed to.
- verbify 7y agoDefinitely, that would be a better outcome. However the rent isn't being forgiven - it will possibly be sold to a collections agency, who would hound the renter to get something back from some of the renters.
