I'm not arguing that Providence the city government itself is doing it. Just pointing at the landlords and real estate investors that control our housing right now.

You have no conception of how prices work if you think landlords are raising prices in an attempt to make providence feel “grand”

No, but they are raising prices to get a higher return.

Don’t try to “that’s how capitalism works” when you just said real estate investors aren’t trying to make Providence feel “grand”. You clearly don’t understand capitalism if you made that statement.
