    It’s like that economist logic that giving money to everyone would make everyone poor, if everyone had a house everyone would be homeless, and if everyone had shoes we would all have to walk barefoot.
    You don’t need to control rent, though, just control hoarding.

    Low housing supply actually increases rents.
