I’m not sure you know this, but housing is a NEED, and making it a tradable commodity that is affected by market trends tends to harm more people than it serves
You’re right, I guess we should also murder shop owners, pharmacy owners, clothing production owners, prostitutes, even councils who charge for toilet usage, self-help gurus, artists… All people who provide needs that are affected by market trends.
You will not die without most those things, and the things you would are either currently being hoarded and killing people (shop owners destroying edible food to increase margins, pharmaceutical companies gouging for AIDS medication, insulin, etc), or cannot effectively hoarded (bathrooms, scam artistry, regular art).
And on the other side, ‘we need to murder all landlords’ also leaves a bad taste.
