    People don’t “want to rent”. They want shelter. It’s just that renting is the easiest way to get that.

        People don’t “want to work.”

        I don’t think that’s true, but I suppose then we’d have a debate over what “work” is.

        Statements like that are technically true, but how helpful are they for contributing to a conversation?

        Well, we were having a discussion about renting vs. owning which you seemed to understand were two different things.
