  1. Certainly there shouldn’t be any such bailouts to the speculators. 100% agree there. But it probably bears mention that the idiocy that is rent control/stabalization is long past due for ditching as well.Report

  2. North,

    I would tend to agree, although I did deliberately avoid going down this road, despite my own problems with rent control laws in general. Rather than put on my libertarian hat, I kept my real estate professional hat on and wrote from that perspective.

    We do agree.Report

    1. Ah Okay I follow, sorry for bringing it up then. I work in mortgage and New York is a giant mound of suck due to the idiocies of that particular brand of regulation. So when I saw my hated enemy mentioned I had to strike! Strike!!!Report

  3. I would see the trade of a bailout to get rid of Rent Control in NYC as a trade worth making, if I didn’t very much hate the idea of bailouts oh so very much.Report
