Parasitic landlords is just as fair as parasitic mask hoarders. Land is a limited resource and you are abusing your capital to extract rent. Then you use your votes to make it harder to build (zoning laws) or more expensive for the next person (prop 13). Many landlord hire a property manager and literally have to do nothing but collect a check. Housing is an essential item, like healthcare, water, and food. It should not be hoarded sorry.

Berlin from the OPs story was very, very cheap 20 years ago, but then the socialist didn't want to buy. They preferred to enjoy the cheap rents. The government even sold most of the social housing. Now that it has gone up in value, they want to have their shares, risk free.
