Leave it to the New York Times, the “paper of record”, to take these important initial steps to legitimize the world’s most horrid human rights abuses.
Is it okay to make money off prisons and concentration camps?
No.
No, it’s not ok to earn rental income.

Renting can be a solution for people who aren’t ready for or don’t want home ownership, but the issue arises when boomers hoard properties for the rental income so people who want houses can’t buy them.
Its not a “boomer” issue. Its a rich vs poor issue. The most common age group of people buying up tons of property in order to make it short term rentals are 30-40. Maybe 50. But certainly not over 50.
The short term rentals are especially evil because they take good starter housing stock off the market, reduce long term rental availability, and basically strangle every local economy that they exist in.
Apartments and normal long term rentals are largely owned by corporations at this point also. Not by boomers. Few people rent from an actual person anymore, unless its an airbnb

This, real estate is a form of wealth, and as the distribution of wealth becomes more one sided housing is naturally going to follow it as long as the law enables it to be used as an investment.
People that see nothing wrong with renting properties, will do this shit as well.

Well, I see the NYT has certainly evolved with the changing times. Where once it pretended to talk about issues faced by us all it has now apparently retreated to the much more financially-secure world of providing ethical cover for landlords who profit from human suffering. If this is a ‘war on immigration’ these guys are literally war profiteers. Definitely ‘speaking for the people’ there, NYT. No, in case you were wondering, the word ‘rich’ does not in fact belong inside those quotes.

All the links are dead.
The (presumably) bot that posted it is now extremely banned from the community.
Edit: Not a bot after all, so unbanned, but waiting to see their edits to make the links work.
This looks like it was written by AI.
You weren’t kidding. The headlines and links certainly look real. Damn
Oh I’m well aware that this is not new, they’ve just taken shilling for the elite in the guise of being ‘about the people’ to new heights with this one.
NO!
No.
Only if you charge an exorbitant amount to those fuckers. Tack on an extra 5 million a month “holding cell” fee.
Hell no.
kind of ??
Why?
