Not all landlords are bad and not all renters are bad..Can we accept that and actually discuss this issue rather than getting all defensive about it?

All I wanted to know was if the original idea I posted has any feasibility and so far everyone has piled in attacking landlords and renters..and yes I did suggest that absentee (foreign) landlords that sit on housing and never rent out are making the situation worse.

Can we ever provide affordable housing to rent or should we look for ways to help young families get into their own home?
