A few comments around saying, "not all landlords are bad; I'm a landlord and I'm pretty okay." Where are the tenants saying, I'm happy to pay rent to my landlord?
I'll be one.
I've never owned property. I'd like to, and I think there's a huge evil in the scale and manner of property/land rental that goes on, and I'd much prefer an overwhelming change toward most people being able to own their home.
But not all of us are in a position to own. Nor does everyone want the responsibility and the overhead (ownership can be expensive too!). I'm glad there have been landlords from whom I can rent a place in each of the places I've been.
