Rent Strike Will Become Psychological Nemesis

I’ve read a few articles reporting that the idea of Rent Strike(s) is gaining momentum. Apparently, advocates have moved past a request seeking deferred payments, or other options, to simply demanding that rent be waived altogether.

My concern is that regardless of whatever is offered in an attempt to explain that LLs have obligations as well, emotions are going to feed this issue and automatic unchallenged waivers of rent will be demanded by tenants on a massive national scale.

In other words, the logic used to counter the argument will not be tolerated.  It will become an emotion-fed entrenched position by tenants.
