Message | Mr Speaker, There is a growing body of evidence suggesting that rent control does nothing but to restrict supply and lock out people from the housing market, especially if paired with NIMBY policy. Instead of regulating rent, we should make sure zoning laws are as loose as possible (with some exceptions, of course), entice developers to build more market-rate and luxury housing around country, and build more public housing for low- to middle-income people and families.
