Nah dude, try again. I'm a fair housing attorney. I devote most of my waking hours to getting rid of discrimination in housing, reducing barriers to housing, and encouraging the building of affordable housing.

I do what I can in the present framework every single day, but I know that more can and must be done. I know that change does not happen overnight, I know people have died just getting us where we are. But I also know that tonight, some family who was being charged outrageous rent for an unlivable place will be thrown out on the street, when housing is abundant. That's unacceptable to me and I'll do what I can to make that a thing of the past, regardless of how unlikely you think that is.

Then by all means fight the good fight.
But also know that your perspective is influenced/warped by the people you come into contact with.They are the minority of those that rent not the majority.
Landlords will always be with us and it sucks that those at the bottom get the shaft.
And what I also know is tonight a family of drug addicts are facing eviction for trashing their landlords apartment and not paying their rent.
And rightfully so.
Not everyone at the bottom is an innocent victim that is also something to keep in my mind.
