I sell drugs to minors and bribe police to allow me to keep doing it.
No, I'm a construction worker building houses and units.
For a moment there, I thought your second sentence was going to be confessing that you were also a landlord.
So you, the mastermind behind the housing crisis, blame the victim?
Why do people have to rent? Because they cannot buy because construction workers refuse to build enough housing.
Why do landlords charge so much rent? Well, the biggest contributor to that is mortgage costs, driven up by out of control labor costs for construction.
The rest of the rent goes into savings by the landlord. The reality is, most renters are not as gentle with their homes as owners are and when something breaks, they demand that the landlord fix it and threaten to withhold rent until it is fixed. Facing financial ruin if they cannot make mortgage payments, the landlords are forced to turn to greedy construction workers preying on people backed into the corner. The construction workers take all of the set aside "excess rent" and more.
So really, we should stop blaming land lords and start blaming construction workers. They could, literally, build a free house for everyone.
…
I am joking, if that was not clear.
