Liberal logic at its finest.
If homes didn't exist then homelessness wouldn't exist. Did I do it right?

If jobs didn’t exist, there would be zero unemployment.

If beautiful people didn't exist, knuckle dragging troglodytes wouldn't either.

If tall people didn't exist, short people wouldn't either.

If triangles didn’t exist, neither would Thursday.
If the Sun didn’t exist, neither would night, BECAUSE WE’D ALL BE DEAD
