Of course slavery and landlordism aren't identical in every respect, but they both are based on a parasite class doing no work, and extracting labor value from people who do. Large-scale vs small-scale doesn't make landlording any more ethical.
Do you have a problem with public housing or are landlords okay when it’s the state?
I wish people here understand this. It costs money to buy property, and so effort needed to be applied into buying one was done beforehand by being good with money. Rich people don't need to go through this, and should rightfully be criticized.
