I'm not forcing anyone to do anything. But if leech landlords (as described in the meme) are on the chopping block (regulation) I'd happily drop the cleaver/vote in favor.

I don't want to own, I'm happy to rent. Landlords provide a service I want, just like my butcher, my dentist, my hairdresser, etc.

Problem with banning them outright, is where are all the people who can't afford to buy a house going to Live?
Sure, house prices might drop and some people might be able to buy. What about the rest?
Make them homeless?

Landlords existing isn't a boring dystopia. Pick a different community for the meme.

I dunno about this one. Maintaining residential areas does take some work. Bills and all that do have organizational skills. Is it a 40 hour a week job? Depends on how big it is and how many residents there are.
