News Flash, Landlords. The Rent Isn’t Coming.

We’ve been in this endless pandemic season for what seems like six or seven years, so I think we can be forgiven for failing to notice how massively our national discourse has shifted from where it was at the end of 2019. Go back in time and ask me whether I thought cancelling rent for a massive portion of American people would ever be a good idea. I might not laugh in your face (although, admittedly, I might do exactly that), but I certainly would suggest that you were perhaps not entirely keyed into reality. 

Oh, but what a difference a pandemic and economic freefall makes, because right now and right here, I am going to be arguing for exactly that.
