ITT: People that have no understanding of nuance, or parasitism versus symbiosis. Some people actually find ownership to be bothersome, some people prefer leasing cars instead of buying, some people have good landlords, some other have shitty landlords. But let the hyperbolic nonsense fly and let's nuke everyone and everything!

In this specific example the 4 rental homes likely don't even pay for themselves. Add up the mortgage, insurance, maintenance averages, and property taxes then divide by units and subtract the average rent (include vacancies in the average): that's how much you make per tenant.
At most I could see a profitable location with 4 units covering groceries and vehicles, but not vacations. You would need more like 8 or 9 units for that. Bonus points if they're combined into a single building to reduce maintenance costs and save on heating.
This meme seems to specifically target mom & pop level operations. If the Tenants are really such victims they should just get together buy the property out.
If nobody is allowed to own more than one property, should everyone be forced buy? Where would renters get apartments from?
No rentals, houses will be gifted to everyone and magically conjured out of thin air.
