You're right, there's nothing inherently evil about renting, however it's inherently unequal. Now your home is in the precarious situation of being at the whims of someone whose only motive is profit. You're also assuming capitalism is a law of nature. It's not, and trying to frame it as such is a tired trick. Why do your strawmen have control over how a human right is provided? Why did you pick an example of extreme systemic injustice as an argument against providing housing instead of the litany of successful housing-first programs?
