Summary:

1. Renters may lose their jobs, unable to pay rent.

2. Some landlords have jobs and so have to cover the mortgage and such; but they might also lose their jobs, going into foreclosure.

3. Thus renters can lose their home that way, even if the landlord lets them go without paying rent.

4. Thus, who is the winner? Why money landlords: banks!

Banks are not out of a job; they get to take people's houses.

If you want a pandemic-proof racket, start a bank.
