Rent Control is a fascist concept, so why do liberals support it?

OnePercenter is a fucking idiot. Thread.

Despite rent control, there are 48.5 million rental units in the US.

Your rent continues to go up due to greed.

So wanting fair market value for your property is greed?

How about you work for less than your salary?

Who determines fair market value?

The market.

Figures a socialist weenie like you can't figure that out.

The issue is the rental market.

The Rental Market, when not impacted by things like Rent Control, is controlled by market forces.

Raising rent every year.

Who determines fair market value?

The market, you silly twat.

No, the sellers.

Great. I'm going to sell you my IBM stock for $200 a share.
Wire me the money.

Nah, I'll go 50.

You said the seller determines fair market value.

You lied.

WOW! YOU, the seller determined the market value, I the buyer countered, it's a no sale.

Libertarianism Makes You Stupid

Who determines demand?

Customers, you moron.

If we didn't have a fixed market you'd be correct.

That's why you can't afford to move to a cheaper apartment?
Because the market is fixed?

No, it's because moving costs money.

Well golly, you have to decide if the moving costs are worth the savings on rent.

Well golly, since 80% of working class American's live paycheck to paycheck there is a 80% chance that the renter doesn't have money to move and pays the landlord determined rent.

America needs rent control to contain the growth of cities. Rent control causes landlords to cease maintaining apartments. Pretty soon they deteriorate to the point where they're unfit for human habitation and become the exclusive enclaves of welfare-teat sucking liberals. Shortly thereafter they (like too many rats in a cage) turn to killing each other. Ultimately the city becomes a ruin where nothing can live. Not even real rats - because there's nothing to eat. We're in an early stage but California will show us how to do it better.

I think the burden being put on property owners through taxes is doing most of the damage.

Rents rise at a faster rate than taxes.

Liberals, why do you support rent controls?

conservatives*, why do you support pedophiles, tax cheats and draft dodgers?

You've confused totalitarianism with controlling greed.

No sale means no market........now you understand how stupid your previous claims were.

Glad to help. Sorry I exposed your idiocy.

Controlling greed would require totalitarianism...…..not worth the loss of freedom. Obviously.

No sales means just that. You controlled the market and failed.

How would rent control be paramount with loss of freedom?

You still controlled the market, and failed at doing so.

You can't answer a simple question and call me a "fucking idiot." Libertarianism DOES make you stupid.

They should have chosen cheaper housing.
