This is a great start to the housing issue but.... Can we go further and not let corporations or private equity firms buy housing in the first place? Adding housing to your portfolio with the implied goal of making money on such a commodity doesn't sound healthy. I'd imagine what we'd see is something like the private health insurance problem if we don't stop it now.
