Half of all renters in the US make major, long-lasting sacrifices to afford housing. A basic failing of US capitalism. Many millions suffer so a small minority - landlords - profit. The system is the problem.

I guess the only argument for that i can think of is that goverments are mandated to uphold human rights and if housing is considered a human right then the argument could be made but i think that is not a waterproof argument
If we could rewrite most countries constitutions we should include all of this. We would need this on paper for governments to be truly obligated to the welfare of its people.
Thanks for taking the time to engage with me.
