Landlords do not "provide" housing. Construction workers provide housing. Landlords, in fact, do the opposite of providing housing. They take the houses that were built for people to live in, hold them hostage for rent, and evict anyone who can't pay.

Society has figured that out, it’s called buying a home. Some people live in their home. Others prefer to rent. Some people build or buy homes and rent them out to people who like to rent. Some of those landlords are douches. Others are fantastic. Markets!

Landlordism is deeply ingrained in public mind as normal since it is older than capitalism, an ancient parasitic substrata. We can shift public's view of it by explaining that government is the ultimate landlord +we can make landlords pay "rent" via land value tax

We did figure out how to build housing and pay construction workers. Landlords do it.
