Just because it's legal doesn't make it right

I read articles like this a lot and it's hard to wrap my brain around. Granted, it touches a nerve as I am invested in Tacoma and in MFH (some of which are low income) - but I'd love to know how others' view on/about this. It seems to me that just because it's legal doesn't mean it's right. In this case expecting lower income folks who are living M2M to be out with 30 days isn't realistic or really humane.

I KNOW it's a business. And I KNOW the "if we didn't do it, someone else will..." but I guess I'd rather be able to sleep at night than be that much of a capitalist.

So give them 60 days if it makes you feel better.
