Post by: Battle Monkey of Zardoz on October 19, 2010, 03:35:57 PM: The rent is to damn high is code for "someone else should pay my rent ( and everything else)'because I am entitled to it.

IOW. He and his followers are Wastes of skin.

Once again "their" solution to what the .gov screwed up in the first place will be more .gov. Thus creating the vicious cycle and death spiral... [sigh].

Solution, get rid of rent control and let the market set prices.

In addition, relaxing Zoning Laws might help also. How expensive and painful is it to build new housing over there?
