Everyone has to live somewhere. No one has to make their income from owning and restricting housing.

The right to have somewhere decent to live is far more important than the right for landlords to make a specific amount of money.

Workers in the short term don't always have a chance or choice to greatly improve their income. Schooling takes years of time and money, promotions are at another person's discretion, same with new jobs etc. A wage slave can't simply decide they want to own a house, there's so many factors and other decision makers between them and that goal. A landlord decides when and where to be a landlord.

These are just some of the reasons why there is no "double standard" involved in favoring renters over landlords. Just because there are two sides involved doesn't mean that treating the two sides differently is unfair. The sides are fundamentally different.
