If I spend my hard earned cash on a house. For any reason I leave for a while. Maybe my work requires I relocate for. (It doesn’t matter what the reason is). Because I’m not there that means you can move in?
What’s even more entitled is you thinking you have a right to shelter you don’t even use when hundreds of thousands nation-wide cannot afford shelter due to people like you hoovering up unused homes.
You know what your attitude is called? Parasitical and greedy.
So a person earns money and spends it on something, and you think that is parasitic. A different person spends no money and uses something someone else paid for, and that isn’t parasitic?
I agree that housing should be a basic human right. I agree that people owning many homes is problematic. But owning a second house that you use for vacations is not what is causing a housing shortage. Owning 5 homes and Airbnbing 4 of them IS part of the cause. Allowing corporations and foreign citizens to own homes is part of the cause. Me buying empty land and building a vacation house on land that has sat empty for millions of years isn’t causing a housing shortage.
You do realize that some people get temporarily relocated for work, right? If I have to do a job for 3 months in Minnesota, it isn’t long enough to rent my place in California because renter’s rights won’t allow me to kick them out when I get back. You think that’s me being greedy and parasitical?
So let me get this straight.

Well put
In my example what I was talking about was, while I was away I rented a placed for temporary lodging.
And that is vacuuming up lodging?
I still say you are entitled.
But moving on. Have a good day
