Yes, housing is a basic right that should be affordable to anyone

No, there should be less rent control and a bit more private housing but not rampant capitalist

Yes, and also reform the law so that landlords cannot abuse their power to unfairly accuse and dispose of a renter

What do you think is more important: affordable rent for everyone or better quality housing, even if it's more expensive?

How might rent prices affect your decisions when choosing where to live after high school or college?

 @ISIDEWITHasked…12mos12MO

If rent control was implemented in your city, how do you think it would affect your neighborhood in the long run?

 @ISIDEWITHasked…12mos12MO

How would you decide what's a fair rent for an apartment: the market price, the tenant's income, or something else?

 @ISIDEWITHasked…12mos12MO

Have you or anyone you know ever struggled with the cost of rent? What could have made the situation better?

 @ISIDEWITHDiscuss this answer...10mos10MO

Yes, but only in areas with housing shortages

 @ISIDEWITHasked…12mos12MO

Can the government truly balance the needs of both tenants and landlords when deciding rent policies, or is one side always favored?

 @ISIDEWITHasked…12mos12MO

Could rent controls, in your view, ever be unfair to landlords? Why or why not?

 @ISIDEWITHasked…12mos12MO

How would you feel if your rent didn't increase but there were fewer apartments available in your area?

 @ISIDEWITHasked…12mos12MO

Do you think it's fair for people to stay in the same apartment forever if the rent is kept low, while others can't find a place to live?

 @ISIDEWITHasked…12mos12MO

If rent control meant more people could stay in their homes, but fewer new apartments were built, would it still be worth it?
