Its a complex issue, rent control will never work on its own, and removing rent control will not fix the issue, what needs to happen is red tape needs to be removed for new builds and a LOT more housing needs to be built.


In other words abolish rent controls and cut other regulations too. Agreed.

Rent control opens permanent housing as people get out of the market.

It reduces quality of rentals because it makes rentals less necessary as housing opens up.

Conservatives like to cherry pick that it reduces quality though.

Rent control has been proven over and over again to be terrible policy that restricts the availability of affordable housing.
Very basic economics.

Its not controversial to oppose it outside of leftist bubbles.

Pretending i'm the one who loves seeing homeless people is ignorant and emotional nonsense. But of course that is to be expected from you. I see you have not improved.
Emotion over logic and facts, even when it harms poor people you pretend to care about.

None of the policies you advocate would do anything but increase homelessness.

Homelessness only exists in excess in cities WITH rent control. Nice fucking try.

Yeah because cheaper rent will cause people to be unable to afford a home..
Or maybe rent control was put into place BECAUSE of the homeless problem..

If you cant afford to live in a city, you move out of a city.

Homelessness is a compounded problem created by liberal simps creating moral hazards with bad state incentives.
