    I didn’t upvote the meme. I was replying to a thread about whether or not someone who profits from renting can be a good person. I said that making a profit off renting is a shitty thing to do.

    You are turning this into a completely different conversation.

      My mistake, though I do think it makes sense for a rental owner to modestly profit for undertaking risk and property management responsibilities. It’s still a service rendered. The problem is that in all of these threads there’s no nuance, only absolutes - it’s always landlords are evil and should die. No one should ever make a cent for fixing my toilet or replacing my hot water heater.
