You can’t outsmart supply and demand, period. No government ever has or ever will. Rent control doesn’t work, every economist agrees.
Rent control privileges existing tenants over new ones and doesn’t fix the supply problem. It incentivizes landlords to constructively evict tenants so they can re-rent at market rate instead of capped rate. Boneheaded policy which makes dems look bad. Voting for Biden but this is a dumb look.
