Renter protections are important.
but they aren't a replacement for robust supply.
Spending time in NYC this summer, strong renter protections combined with constrained supply.
Seem to produce many of the same toxic entrenched NIMBYisms that prevent improvement and development.
instead of a city being slave to the interests of homeowners,
it's slave to the interest of city employees, and smallish group of lucky tenants in way below market rate housing.

There needs to be some way of holding these people accountable - it’s one thing to peddle harmful nonsense but it’s clearly another to do it knowing that it is harmful nonsense.
They need some sort of regulation and hiding behind “it’s just entertainment” shouldn’t cut it.

Man, I’ve paid more in Indian income tax than the average Indian business. What’s Modiji playing at?

There really is a lot riding on that 1.6 Bn suit… perhaps the entire American 4th estate.

Jimmy Carter is the third-oldest living state leader after Khamtai Siphandone of Laos and Tomiichi Murayama of Japan.

Still can't forgive the people that voted for this clown in 2016, and tried to convince other people to vote for her as well.
Especially disappointed in the black people that took part in that foolishness
