Hmmm. We'll need someone to run that of course.
The government will need someone to do the admin, to be the property master. The government can use some of the income from the tennants to pay their wages, allowing them to profit from the hard work of the tennants of course but we won't hold that against them.
No, property master doesn't sound right? What would we call the person running such a scheme? Building ruler? Land controller? Residence lord?
There's probably a simpler term for it. It'll come to me.
I literally said the word in my reply. Also, you seem to have completely missed the point: we can have them charge rent, or provide it for free, or rent but subsidized, or any other scheme because it's detached from market logic. It's not about the word "landlord", it's about the effects of actions. Call it whatever you want, I don't care.
And admin roles really don't need a wage equivalent to mortgage payments and ownership of the properties they administer, so your comparison is dishonest. I'd prefer you spent your thinking on reason rather than formulating your troll response.
