We need the Rent Is Too Damn High guy to be in high political office to get this shit under control.
Eh, McMillan is a republican who endorsed Trump. We don’t need him.
We want the legend, rather than the man, it would seem
good luck angering the rich real estate-owning people without a backup plan
At this point we need somebody who will just come out and say it: it's everyone else versus landlords.
Fuck them. You cant outsource an apartment building to China. Make their lives hell and if they decide being a landlord isn't worth it and sell their property at a loss then everyone is better off for it
What we need is more housing, and that means looser zoning, which means fighting the NIMBYs. I would love to see mixed zoning become a more common thing in the US (and everywhere TBH).
