Satire is indistinguishable from stupidity

There’s a lot of good ideas in there, but rent freezes aren’t one of them. Limiting what you can charge for a service just means less people will want to provide that service.

Yes landlords will just take their houses overseas.

Even if you just talk about building new homes, freezing rent just caps the profits that can be pulled out of a project. If it’s profitable right now, why shouldn’t it be with same income tomorrow?

Because costs only go up, that’s why. It may not be profitable tomorrow at all.
Then sell your property.
to whom? unless the rent can change (which it realistically shouldn’t if the law is written well) it still won’t be profitable
People make bad investments all the time.
and they have every right to complain about the government making a half decent one into a horrible one

And normal people have a right to not care about people leeching off of actual workers.

And if you’re talking about homeowners, I still don’t care. You don’t deserve imaginary free money for owning land. Its for living in, not an investment.

Go buy some stocks and stop being selfish.
