[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Controlling prices is insane. Look what rent control does. It boosts the price for everyone else. There’s no such thing as a free lunch. That’s the first thing anyone learns in econ 101. Part of the reason DC or Manhattan apartment rent is so expensive today is because of rent control. [/quote] Rent control allows for the elderly to stay in the city that they lived forever in. It also allows low income service workers, those who provide services to the public like you, to live and work in the city. I knew a teacher who had to work two jobs to afford to live in the city she taught in. That's ridiculous.[/quote]
