    Agreed on all points.

    Some communities pass laws to keep investor landlords out entirely.

    Amazon buying rental property might also be ruled illegal under current anti-trust laws.

    I don’t know the best approach, but I don’t expect good things to come from Amazon getting into the landlord business.

        Good point, but really beside the point.

        Anyone who thinks Bezos’ controlling interests in both companies won’t cause public harm should consider my fine selection of bridges that I’m selling for ridiculous bargains.

          He will not cause harm because of Amazon, he will cause harm because he’s Bezos.
