Do you presume that I should have no say on who I allow to live in the home I bought?
No -- you do not have "no" say. But but the law says there are limits in the criteria you can use to reject candidates.
Of which you (as a landlord) are presumably already perfectly aware. As you are of the fact that minute you move out (and establish another legal residence) -- it's no longer your "home".
It's my property.
Sorry, but this isn't an Ayn Rand novel. In real life, property ownership does not give you 100 percent freedom to do what ever you want with your property. It is a social contract, with obligations and limits.
Okay. I prefer to vote for people who make it so, and live in places where, that social contract has better terms for me. We've seen what the opposite policies lead to: Seattle, LA, Portland. I would never step foot in those cities again, and everyone knows why.
Seattle and Portland will find themselves in a Detroit situation in the coming decades. Remote work means people start to realize they don't need to step over human feces in their city to earn a wage. I don't foresee this decay being stopped.
