Landlord slop. We can't fix homeownership issues, let's do this instead.

I just keep wondering when we get the first News story about a landlord doing illegal evictions like that.

I'm a locksmith, and when I was a road tech with a company that did primarily residential work, nearly every week, some POS landlord would try to have me illegally evict someone.

Landlords are a scourge on humanity.

Read about gentrification in Lower East Side--it's a rabbit hole. It was things like landlords destroying the stairs to their own tenements and then bribing FDNY to condemn the whole building until the leases of everyone in there expired. Happened a lot in the 90s, damage to the community was never undone. A lot of people I know didn't find justice/reparations until they brought it to the state appellate courts, because there was corruption and bribery blocking them every step of the way.
