Landlords have bills to pay the same as everyone else, including you. If HB doesn't cover the bills, the tenants get evicted, simple economics. If not house gets repossessed and they still get evicted, this time though the letting agent et al have also now lost income.
Everyone loses.
You still don't get it do you?
Let's put it this way, your wages also support - council workers, Tesco staff, petrol station attendant etc, do you get it yet?
I know, how about the government caps your wages and gives it to someone else more deserving, you clearly will have no problem with that will you?
Thought not.
