No I would not support that for completely different reasons. Being a landlord is rent seeking behavior. It allows parasitic elites to live off productive people. How did wealthy land owners get their land? Warlording.

Men who work at least 7 years in a objectively productive job can vote. Married women with children can vote. That is the sort of requiremnt I would support. Maybe an IQ test would be in order, or a history test. Government workers and politicians should never be allowed to vote.

Redistribution of wealth from working men to women is a real problem, so outlaw it. But men can be just as abusive with political power as women, which is why there needs to be a check on male political power. Things were not great before women had the vote. Slavery, banking, brother wars, booze and drug trade— men created those problems.

The key is never to let any particular group gain too much power, and to never allow unproductive behavior to be rewarded monetarily.
