Landlords do not provide housing

ID: A Sophie Labelle 4 panel comic featuring Stephie in different poses, saying:

Landlords do not provide housing.

They buy and Hold more space than they need for themselves.

Then, they create a false scarcity and profit off of it.

What they're doing is literally the opposite of providing housing.

They can't afford to buy because they're paying rent. They're eating off the plate of the working class, which is good because it upholds capitalism.
