You make that sound like anyone who’s able to rent a place is able to buy a place

Call me old fashioned, but if you're able to pay for the full cost of the mortgage and maintenance of the property, plus your 'share' of the living expenses of your landlord then yeah, I think you're able to afford the property without the landlord.

All your landlord adds is making the property more expensive so you can support their lifestyle.

Sure maybe all housing should be free

Damn, that's a hell of a jump to make from my argument. Where did I say that housing should be free?
