Does having an AirBNB setup make someone deserving of the guillotine or does that only apply to owners of multiple houses? What about apartments?

Please explain your reasoning as well.

Pay and profit are not the same thing, though. A landlord can be compensated for work without making a profit.

Agreed on UBI though.

you should be paid enough to make a profit. profit = money left over from being paid after expenses.

If you spend some time - any time - you should be compensated an amount that allows you to do things you actually want to do.

I'm not sure you knew what the word "profit" means, but hopefully you do now, or can find a better way to express what you mean.

Compensation for work - even if that work is performed by the owner - is an expense, not profit.
