This is what a completely immoral capitalist sounds like. Is it impossible for the owner to reach out to tenants? Ask them how they are doing and what their payment prospects are? If true stress is indicated (it will be obvious which are really in dire straights), work with those tenants on plans to help them land as softly as possible? Rather than just terrorize them into crawling away, more injured by their association with you than they had to be. As written, the comment is completely unsupportable.

When I took over this building, the prior landlord had developed cancer a year earlier and was on chemo. One of the tenants found out, and spread the word to all the other tenants - and encouraged all of them to stop paying rent. A little over half of them stopped paying an elderly man rent while he was in the hospital having chemo. That meant that he couldn't pay the mortgage on the building and was forced to sell it. That is what it's like being a landlord. You should try it and your opinion on "evil capitalists" will quickly change from your current twelve year old's perspective.
