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.

If rents are too high, then the Laws of Economics are working exactly as they should be working, and any attempt to defy the Laws of Economics only results in economic hardship and suffering for all.
If people cannot afford rent, then they need to relocate to another city where they can afford rent. There are 1,538 separately functioning economies in the US, so it's not like there aren't plenty of jobs available.
The whole idea of cramming as many people as possible into two cities - Los Angeles and San Fransisco -- which sit on two major faults -- the San Andreas Fault and the Hayward Fault -- where potentially thousands could be killed or injured in a major earthquake is absurd on its face.

Yes exactly . I live in L.A and it seems like people hear think this is the only place humans can survive . Maybe here San Francisco New York and a few other cities .
Many other cities are much more affordable than big cities in CA and they have jobs and low unemployment.

Landlords should raise rents to the point that people decide to leave CA. Once you reach that point, the prices are correct.
Kamala Harris is a half wit. Don't believe me?.........look at all the utubes on her. She makes a fool of herself each time and still continues to do so.

The problem is that these cities also have rent control . So people can’t just raise rents .
Ironically the places with strongest rent control have the highest rents.
Rent control is just a bad system . It doesn’t incentive landlords to update their places which is why you see so many run down apartment buildings in L.A .
Also it keeps neighborhoods from revitalizing. It puts younger people at a disadvantage too since the people that have been in their apartments for 15 20 years or so have the lowest rents even if they don’t need to live in the area anymore or a job or they might be earning a bunch of money but still have rent subsidized by the landlord basically.
