It may be that the Housing Autority cancelled the Section 8 contract because of the tenant's breach. In that case, yes, the tenant is simply responsible for all of the rent, and if the tenant does not pay, the landlord should move forward with eviction. But, there is federal regulation saying that the tenant cannot be evicted if the Housing Authority simply stopped paying for some reason that has nothing to do with the tenant, like the housing authoriy's error, or budget problems.
Most states employ the doctrine of 'joint and several liability', which means that each tenant is responsible for all of the rent. If any portion is unpaid, everybody gets evicted.
Tenants have the right to complain about other tenants that are disruptive. If the landlord fails to act, then the tenants may take their complaint to the government department that that oversees Landlord Tenant disputes. This department has the authority to compell the landlord to take action if they can't or won't do it on their own.
That's called subleasing, and it's frowned upon by the landlord, whose intentions in renting out the apartment is that he rents it to his lawful tenants, not to sub-tenants. You can be evicted if you break this rule on the lease.

No. Tenants have permission from the landlord to use the property. You can't claim adverse possession if you had permission to use the property. If a tenant refuses to leave they can be evicted. Squatters are trespassers in the United States.
Possession tenants have the right to occupy and use the property they are renting, as long as they abide by the terms of their lease agreement. They also have the right to privacy and to have their landlord provide necessary repairs and maintenance. Additionally, possession tenants have the right to not be unlawfully evicted and to seek legal recourse if their rights are violated.
You can be evicted only if there are other valid reasons like disturbing other tenants, illegal activity, etc.
Absolutely. Many states have statutes that say exactly that the tenant must grant access.
Yes, a tenant can be evicted for police activity on the premises if the lease agreement includes provisions related to criminal activity or disturbances. Landlords have the right to evict tenants who engage in illegal activities or cause disturbances that disrupt the peace and safety of other residents.
That's called "landlords not doing background checks." There are several agencies that keep records of tenant's histories.

Yes there is rent when using a section 8 housing. It a voucher system where by the renter pays a portion of the rent but usually only up to 30% of the household income.
I don't believe that a Section 8 voucher can be used to rent a room.
