Rent Controls are for progressives what Tariffs are for MAGA things they are too ideologically attached to emotionally for them to be able to comprehend they don't work
State governments should ban local governments from doing rent controls
A thought experiment: what will happen if someone quits being a landlord? Will they eat their home? No, they sell. Which means new houses will enter the market. Supply increases, while prices decrease So in short, Mr. Libertarian just said that Rent Control lowers housing costs
Rent control sounds compassionate, but it discourages new construction, incentivizes disinvestment by the property owner, and traps tenants in place, all while potential new renters are locked out of the area. Prices are a market signal. You can’t balance the supply of a product with the demand for that product without market feedback. You can’t build your way out of a crisis if pricing mechanisms are disabled. Capping rents or mortgages, freezing prices, or mandating below-market outcomes turns off the feedback loop that helps housing providers know where there’s opportunity to provide more housing. This will not end well. Short-term comfort, long-term pain.
There's a case slowly working its way through federal courts in NYC that has the potential to become a national case. The plaintiffs are challenging the constitutionality of NY's rent control and stabilization laws. And they managed to land a judge appointed by Trump...
Liberals can't seem to fathom that we don't care if rent control is "bad for da economy"
They're not freezing your rent, they're freezing your housing providers' income, while their expenses keep increasing. The point isn't to make your housing affordable, it's to make providing housing financially inviable, so government(s) can seize the unmanageable properties. Our lack of financial literacy is going to destroy us. spencerpratt.substack.com/p/the-phantom-…
Rent control is evil and everyone should stop supporting it
The first one happens all the time. It’s happening in Austin right now!!! Housing is not exempt from Supply and Demand!
