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.

    it’s a so-so store of value at best.

    For that to be true you need to be living in a place where price/rent has not doubled or even quadrupled in the past 10 years.

        It’s also the sad reality in basically all places world wide that aren’t in the middle of nowhere.

        People sometimes even spend over 50% of their paycheck for rent and most consider this normal.

        Hence the downvotes on your comment.
