Owning land with a livable structure on it, and keeping it to the standards of living in is a job.

That's not what Alakazam is talking about here though. Just by owning land, it generates money, magically, from "nothing". And then the vast majority of landowners use that as excuse to entrench their wealth and then you get... Waves hands at hyperinflated rent crisis what we're all stuck in now.

Whether someone wants to be one of the "good land owners" or not doesn't change the fact that the system is set up for the ones that want to exploit it
