Get rid of landlords...
I mean if something breaks due to normal wear and tare then that's the landlords responsibility but if you flush a Barbie down the toilet or pour bacon grease down the drain it's your fault. Washington state has laws mandating tenants to report certain damages or loss of power, heat, and water while the landlord has a period of time to get that repaired. If your loss water due to a damaged pipe it has to be repaired in 24 hours, who's at fault and gets the bill can be hashed out later.
Really, do you think when you rent a car that you can drive it into a brick wall, and it's Hurtz responsibility to repair it because you paid for convenience?
completely depends on the rental agreement. I encourage anyone reading this to find all the loopholes and exploit the ever living shit out of them.
If I paid for Hertz's $7 a day insurance and it says I'm not liable for damages in any way, then fuck yes I expect to be able to drive into a brick wall and walk away. Landlords who are too stupid, lazy, or uninformed to protect their capital from the people they're exploiting to grow it don't get special treatment, their capital is fair game. It wouldn't be my fault if Hertz sold me that coverage, and it wouldn't be a renter's fault if a lease agreement let them off the hook for flushing a barbie down the toilet.
What's the last time you scrubbed the floor at a McDonald's out of the kindness of your heart, just because some pee splashed on it?
