- Then where do you draw the line? If the home has, say,
- more than four bedrooms? Five? Ten? I stayed at a motel
- once that had only six rooms. What about them? Come on,
- give me a break! The Hilton is as large as they are because
- they have run their business well and have grown as a result.
- Should the purpose of the government be to punish them for
- that success? Is success (or wealth) so wrong that it must
- be regulated?

- There are no conflicts here. But those who want to rent
- should not have the government on their side forcing
- someone to rent to them. That is a conflict.
