John, you fundamentally do not seem to understand that billionaires will not stop until they are stopped.

Of course democracy can pass laws to limit corporations from preying on the poor. Of course democracy can forbid institutional ownership of residential real estate. (And please, don't conflate your "aging grandmother"--we're all aging--with a trillion-dollar tax evading corporation.)

I don't care about your travel preferences. They are not more important than a local family's right to affordable shelter.

Extricate from your tiny world of false dichotomies, my friend. As if inheriting grandma's house and hedge fund investments are somehow comparative. As if commercial travel lodging and affordable local housing are mutually exclusive. This is just lazy thinking, and I know you can do better.
