Oh hell no. For her information, $1300 a month rent is pretty average where I live, although there is cheaper. Yet, nobody gets paid what they make in California. Georgia is one of the lowest paid states.
California taxation is the reason why the housing in California is unaffordable. My solution is that if you can’t cut it, then move. It’s what all the rest of us do.
In 1982 I paid $250 a month rent for a 3 bedroom 2 bath 1800 sq.ft with a 4 car detached garage / shop, in Austin TX.
Today that same place rents for $2800.
We are currently subsidizing the farmers . . so why not?
the farmers are earning money, growing crops that we depend on: renters do not do the same: that is a huge difference, plus when it comes to farmers it covers all states and regions, not just one state. You are comparing apples and lemons.
Renters are more important to our economy than farmers.
We can always import products from overseas. We can't import rent money from foreign market.

That is one of the most far out logic I have seen here in years: Try and pay for your food with food that is all produced over seas or in Mexico. See how that works or maybe you would be just fine living on food stamps when that becomes the only way you can even put food on the table?
It wouldn't be just for California - she wants Rent Control for the USA and has introduced a bill called "The Rent Relief Act". The Federal Taxpayer would have the honor to pay 30% of the rent for those that may/may not pay any Federal Taxes at all.
Fairly typical for a Leftist running for Office (they say she is the Great Hope for the Left) -

Renters are not producing a product preventing starvation.
For whom, are we not eating not anymore? We are paying them for product they are not able to sell, if people need their food why cant they sell it.
