Oh, this is already what happens.
Also, I’m not sure why people continuously believe that getting rid of property owners will somehow be good for renters, or that the price would be reduced to an amount where poor people can buy it. Empirically never has happened.

If you couldn't even evict if somebody never paid a single dime of rent, I think that would cascade and destroy the whole industry. An extreme measure that I didn't suggest, you did. > I’m not sure why people continuously believe that getting rid of property owners will somehow be good for renters. I don't want to get rid of property owners. I inherently believe it's better to own a home than rent. I do believe converting renters into home owners is good for the ex-renter. > Renter, property owner. We're all people.
