The point is no one should be in a position to say no. I'm not saying I would do better as a landlord (I would, but that's why I probably will never be a landlord), rather that the system is broken and no one should be, or at least not be allowed to deny this woman at minimum.
Is it so hard to imagine that there can be other incentives to work towards than profit? Profit is not a good goal for a system to prioritize. Can you agree with that? If so, can't you imagine that a system could exist that prioritizes doing good or creating happiness or anything else?
