NYC, Mamdani and why Rent Control does. not. work.

[☑︎#VoteDemocrat]

Bruh, that article didn't say what you are trying to say it did. As a matter of fact it's pointing out that the city is an outlier. Just stop quoting me at this point. I'm convinced you're either a dumbass, a troll, or both.

Show this. You didn’t even read it. I posted excerpts from the entire article, which you didn’t have time to read in the time since I posted it.

This is also why I don't fukk with him. I think he's a snake and maybe a liar. But he's won over the city so it is what it is at this point. I hope for the city's sake it all works out.

I really don't like him. Like great, a liberal city that's always been liberal is going to have another liberal mayor. Great......but you helped fukk over the rest of the country. Usually I'm the sorta person that defends people when they get "cancelled" if it feels like people are overreacting over nothing but when they come for him when he inevitably messes up, I'm not saying shyt.

More data.

Spoiler: read the data

We byke

Lmaoooo..

You think this will work..

Nah..

What they will do is what they're doing down here in south Florida..

Build a bunch of apartments and label them as (Luxury apartments) 2500 for a 1 bdrm..

The system is going to eat us alive..

Everyone is building in one area for people who dont live there..

All the developers here are building for New Yorkers and wealthy overseas people..

The implementation of rent control is usually a one act play with no follow up. Mamdani is proposing to do away with that. To freeze rent at 0% and increase the supply of housing by 200,000, which alleviates the supply issue and should in theory cause the price of housing to reduce. Also, kicking out landlords that don't maintain their buildings, and moving people off rent control if they make over a certain amount so that they can't horde the home.

Whether any of that works remains to be seen, but if that's what the people want, I say go for it, but in earnest. I get sick of people with ideas running, they get the mandate and then get hamstrung by jackasses that have no interest in any form of government working outside of whatever it is that the people who paid them want. If it fails fine, but it fails because it was stressed and pushed beyond what was capable. Not because of greedy b*stards.

All those bodega owners complaining about a government run grocery store were the same ones that were selling ziplock bags with 3 eggs in them for an arm and a leg.

Keep thinking them Neo Liberals gonna save you

Democrats like you is why Trump is in office....come with the same outdated arguments and wants to keep the status quo going that dont work......but get mad when a politician actually comes with new ideas that will make the average american lives easier

Establishment Dems hate progessives so much they'll break party lines and run interference for maga jus to hurt progressives.

A truly pathetic political party, that stands for nothing.

Nap simply put frozen rent saves regular people money, therefore it works.
All these paragraphs you're posting is just trying to complicate something that's really simple.

They can still adjust rent. They can't blow people out. Rent control wouldn't be a thing if unscrupulous landlords didn't get the game fukked up.

It's working for the ppl I know that got it
In fact I know someone in Harlem that basically stopped working cause she was making so much money subleasing rooms in her rent controlled house

No it didn't, rents skyrocketed long before the rent cap was put in place you fukking moron. I lived in Berlin at the time, don't try to tell me things about a city I know better than you.

Mamdani's rise is some suspect sh1t and he's lying his ass off damn well knowing he does not have the power to do any of that from his mayor seat. Theres a board that handles that. Plus the state has to approve of it too. Sounds like a bunch of ignorant ass voters who dont even do their research believing the words of a fraud ass bullshytter. I dont trust him one bit and think theres something more sinister behind him.

True, there is a board. The Rent Guidelines Board. But he would be the person that appoints all the members.

i think Mamdani's a good guy, and sincere about what he wants to do. but some of this is definitely pie in the sky bullshyt

it'll be interesting to see how he does. all i know is that he better not oversee a drop in quality of life, or increase in crime. republicans will be all over that

Adams didn't do jack shyt for this city so saying he got shyt done is full of shyt.

Cuomo did some shyt but he's is brought and paid for and oo yea tried to cover up a whole bunch of elderly people dying in nursing home under his watch so he has that in common with Trump plus he's a sex pest.

Saying moralism is overrated when we see the bull bull Trump and Administration does every day is freaking mind boggling. We are seeing in real time when you have no moral no respect for people in real time how good is the county looking right now.

WON'T SOMEONE THINK OF THE LANDLORD'S PROFITS???

So who should New Yorkers vote for? Cuomo


You were right about voting for Kamala, but things have gone off the rails now. We need to completely shake it up in every corner of this nation

Damn sure didnt stop the price of rent from going up. A rent freeze doesnt mean shyt. You got the nerve to talk about illiteracy.

Thank you for now confirming that a NYC mayor has already been able to do a rent freeze after being humiliated for not reading your own link Next time learn to read first then babble second

If you dont own your apartment, then it matters why you live in a slum. The entire reason people aren’t renovating these apartments is that the owners can’t afford to because the rent is too low.

When I lived in a RC building, I didn't give a shyt about renovations. I just wanted a place to sleep. I traded renovations for cheap rent.

This lack of supply is why its so hard to find a place

This is again, what you little commies dont get...

Stay on track. You talking about renovations or new construction? If you want construction, then build more. Rent control will stay popular as long as landlords keep throwing people out by extreme rent increases.
"Commies" This is why y'all lose

People want something different besides the same old shyt. That’s why NYers want to give him a chance. The other option is the status quo….

Progressives NIMBYs Threaten Affordable Housing In New York And L.A.

Opposition by some progressives to housing development in New York and Los Angeles could worsen housing affordability.

Mamdani himself is recently having to acknowledge the problem of zoning and is willing to allow private developers to fill that need.

This is what I’m telling yall. You dont even know the guy you’re defending is changing all his views in the last few weeks because it’s apparent that he doesn’t know what the fukk he is really doing.

Thats some trickle down shyt.. foh.

If you a new york landlord.. chances are u owned that shyt for some time..
So your 2300 mortgage and u charge 3700..
But you know you could get 5k..

Foh.

Why do we need MAXIMUM profit at the expense of the lower class..

Why does a bank need to make hundreds of billions from overdraft fees..

FOH

Yes. This is called filtering. It’s a whole economic concept.
