so, what you're saying is an abundance of affordable rental properties isn't a positive for society? you'd rather see people living on the street, unable to pay rent and have a roof over their head... just so that those providing that housing don't get rewarded for it?
i'm sorry. i thought modern society economics worked by people providing a good/service, and then getting paid for it. my mistake. remove negative gearing. lets see what happens to rent/homelessness . i don't really mind. no burden on me.
