I think they are the same ones getting all the government breaks right now. I haven’t done a study yet. It’s all rather ominous.

Why so? It takes house off the market, and by renting them out opens up places to live for those who really shouldn’t be buying.

The piece really bothered me in that last regard: First time home ownership is way down because a lot of the people who bought homes should not have bought them. Credit standards and loan approvals were too easy pre-2008, and we should not wish to return to those lax standards.
