Force landlords to pay 25% of tenant rents? Does the insanity end
Not only an endless ban on evictions (for any reason) but now perhaps also landlords must pay 25% of tenant rents? What on earth? Politicians need to stop trying to win votes by leveraging a crisis. Punishing landlords and making it impossible for them to provide housing is a terrible idea not to mention a breach of civil liberties.
When will the insanity end?

I read into this proposed bill. Looks like it would be something like an "Illegal taking". I agree it shouldn't pass. Anyway it looks like some kind of guideline for "balancing hardships" in a disputed eviction. 10 properties or more owned, and it would have to be proved that the landlord didn't need the money. Other items in the proposed bill made it a lot less scary to me. It was part of a bill that included foreclosure issues. Probably get cleaned out of the ridiculous stuff.
