Further, an opened notice from the DMV in this tenant's name related to driving under the influence of alcohol was on the floor, and an unsecured Smith and Wesson handgun was sitting on the bedside table.

If you have more properties in a concentrated area, you can have more influence.  

eg, the listing agent may have more control/influence over rents realized, whereas the prop mgr may have more control/influence over the occupancy rate 

I won't hold my breath that this ever happens but my kids and the people in my small sphere of influence know unless they want me to get on my soap box about this they better keep quite on this subject!  

We've read and have been heavily influenced by Rich Dad Poor Dad and Money Master The Game.

I'm getting the feeling there is some emotional or other non-rational influence going on here. 

State legislators are not difficult to influence and there's lots of landliords you can mobilize.

@Dan Heuschele I'm sure everyone can see neither of us will influence the other. 

Therefore; if you are decorating a home using the influence of Mid Century Modern, or Modern, you wouldn't need to be as careful, but would be looking more toward getting that vibe, with new colors and furnishings that are currently popular but influenced by that era. 

This gives them a sense of self worth and sometimes their positive influence will rub off.
