Property rights

Renters who cannot or will not pay rent are angry that Florida Governor Desantis is allowing the moratorium on evictions to expire tonight at midnight. That moratorium has been in effect since April 2, meaning that tenants have been able to live rent free for at least 4 months.

Meanwhile, the owners of those properties have had to go without collecting a dime of rent for that 4 months. Demanding that someone provide something of monetary value to you is called slavery. My tip to renters is this: try to work something out with your landlord. If they won't, then it is their property, not yours.
