      To be fair, everyone doesnt want to own housing all rhe time (say you study somewhere for a year for example, you might want to rent. Or when you try out anew city) so some landlording is needed. We don’t need landlords having lots of homes though.

        Landlording should never be done for profit. Socialize the fuck out of it. My water, electricity and healthcare is socialized, why do parasites profit off my home?

          Profit, profit, I’d say reasonable profit and mandatory standards.

          For example, when I lived in sweden I knew a landlord, he was stopping because you beeded around 50 appartments (might be inflated from his side, but in many countries you can live off of 2 so …) to make a decent salary.

          In sweden you cant rent out a shitty appartment, you cant set the rent as you like it, and youre taxed etc. etc.

          I mean it should be like a normal job, not granting you robber rights.
