That's actually a plot point in at least one of the vampire shows. A vampire buys someones home from the bank, and they're free to enter despite the resident/occupants refusal.

A private company is selling cheap tablets to inmates to let them communicate with their family. They have to use "digital stamps" to send messages, 35 cents a piece and come in packs of 5, 10 or 20. Each stamp covers up to 20,000 characters or one single image.
They also sell songs, at $1.99 a piece, and some people have spent thousands over the years. That's also now just going away.
Then you get to the part about the new company. Who already has a system in Tennessee where inmates have to pay 3-5 cents per minute of tablet usage. Be that watching a movie they've bought or just typing a message.
Which is how a country like Iceland is able to make more than the US despite having a total population of 400k people: They have tons of access to renewable energy through geothermal vents.
Norway makes around twice as much as the US with their 5.5m people, again because of renewables.
Jason, is that you?
Stop bringing up facts and figures, I have wordly experience!

Sad fact: American police training involves teaching them to shout "drop the weapon" or similar after they shoot someone. Specifically because it sticks in the mind of witnesses and makes it easier to get away with shooting unarmed suspects.
Don't you remember learning about Germany in school? According to history disabled people are going to the camps as well. And RFK has already annonced that they're going on a list. Then it's non-straight people. And then they came for...
The earliest urban dictionary entry for yeet was made in 2008, when you are literally part of the generation that popularized the word.
I know people love to repeat that on social media, but he did technically win the popular vote.

At the end of the day they're just selfish.
My favorite example is the "Free Town Project", where a bunch of libertarians from all over the country tried to take over a town in New Hampshire. After they managed to force through cuts to everything from firefighting to street lights, they had a single police officer left. And he couldn't respond to any calls, because his cruiser was broken and they refused to pay for repairs so crime rose and sex offenders started moving there.
Then came the bears.
They didn't pay for any sort of forest ranger and the cop couldn't respond. So bears started getting close and some people spent years feeding them, while their neighbors walked around armed at all times and would shoot at bears on-sight. Which led to the first black bear on human attack in the state for over a century, where a woman was attacked inside her own home. And shortly after two other attacks happened in nearby towns. So the people went into the forest one night and allegedly shot and killed a dozen bears, which didn't help. Some people suggested the city put bear protection on the trash cans, but it was not passed and was called "government overreach" by others.
So the freedom loving libertarians who moved to a town without zoning laws to live in improvised housing and roam free without laws, ended up having to put up big fences and walls around their homes to keep the bears out.
Yes...?
It was literally NEVER about the money being spent by the government. Anyone who actually believed that is by dictionary definition, dumb.
Not sure vampiric "law" cares about renters rights. And if it does, is it based on current laws in the country they are in, or the country of origin? And is it the origin of vampires themselves or just the vampire turned. And is it based on the time they were turned or modern laws?
Either way, in one instance I they bought it from the bank after missed mortage payments. So they weren't legally living there anyway but counted as last/current resident for the vampire since the bank isn't a person.
