You are mistaking your own opinion for a generalized truth.

If you're currently renting, and expect to keep renting for a long time, state-wide control does seem in your interests?

It might ultimately depress new construction and certainly isn't good for landlords, but makes sense to me a renter would want rent control.


Unless you expect to be renting in literally the same physical house, state-wide rent control isn't in your interests.

No, because rent control isn't portable and most people's housing needs change over time. The person who can hold onto a house for 20 years straight is the outlier.

You work in tech and are somehow convinced working on a blockchain app is a good thing? We should make employees pass a basic economics test!
