Guess I’m not really in favor of rent control. If rents get too high and drive folks out, then eventually there won’t be workers around in the lower pay wages so either (a) they’ll have to pay higher wages, or (b) the city will start thinning out because of lack of workers to keep it running.
There are protections that I think need to be built into even a democratic society, but rent control isn’t one of them.
