To reduce shortages of rental housing, and hence rental prices, only two things will do:
1) something must happen to increase the supply of rental housing, and/or 2) something must happen to encourage people who no longer need large space to move to smaller space. Rent control does neither. In fact, it does the opposite, so rent control can never alleviate a rental shortage. --- On Sun, 3/7/10, Sam Sloan <[email protected]> wrote: If Elected Governor, Sam Sloan will abolish All Rent Control Laws [Non-text portions of this message have been removed]
