Businesses aren't charitable. They keep customers to donate money and then donate the money in the businesses name and get a tax write off.

Luckily for us big businesses has advocated for a world that is good for them and bad for us. If free housing was available people wouldn't be so exploitable and would be able to hold out for higher paying jobs.
