I did retirement home training and used to think it was a sweet job. Then I got in the business and underestimated how demoralizing it was as they give you the easy elders in training while the others make you, or at least me, really think of the fact the job just amounts to an unkarmic freebie.

      Landlord isn’t an occupation, any more than ‘white collar criminal’

        The lack of a land lord does not mean the house disappeared off the planet.

            The lack of a landlord also does not prevent you from temporarily using open housing either.

                Imagine a world where housing was given on a per-need basis. People still need to travel for work and stay for months at a time, except it’s understood that the job getting done is more important than a landlord profiting off the fact you have to travel for it.

                  Who maintains such supply of houses, who pays for it, who would own it, who would carry out repair works as and when they are needed.

                    Landlords do not build housing, nor do they do repair work. So I’m gonna say the scarry trigger word for all you libertarians out there to gasp at. Gubberment.

        Hotels used to be the standard temporary housing.

          So basically only rich should be allowed to do extended travel? Since the supply of hotels would stay the same if rental homes weren’t allowed, hotel rates wouldn’t go down.
