    ~90% of single family home rental properties in the US are owned by ‘mom and pop’ landlords.

    A ‘mom and pop’ landlord being defined as owning 1 to 5 properties.

    Most often that number is 2, they own their home and then a single other home they rent out.

    The corpos are a big problem, but the bulk of the problem are the modern American kulaks, and anyone who isn’t telling you this fact is lying to you by omission and unserious about solving the problem.

    The Russian and Chinese communist revolutions redistributed/reconstituted land and property ownership, away from the ‘mom and pop’ landlords of their times.

    I am not saying they did so perfectly justly.

    I am saying that very similar intial conditions are now recurring.

    Yes, if you weren’t aware, communist revolutions are usually, very significantly, rebellions against landlords, all landlords.
