The hotel and airline bankrolled challenge to the Olympic wage *did not qualify* for the ballot according to the LA County Registrar. This means the city’s Olympic wage ordinance , $25/hour beginning this year and $30/hour by 2028, goes into effect for tourism workers immediately

Right??? 10% rent increase is absurd I didn’t think you’re in favor of trickle down economics…I do view the YIMBY insistence that building more and more luxury apartments will eventually lower rent in older buildings as trickle down economics of sorts

I can admit when I am wrong You can, too! You are wrong about rent control in LA whether you admit it or not

It is true I assumed that Max was referring to Costa Hawkins…I made this assumption because the CA Apartment Owners Association used Costa Hawkins as a talking point to claim CA doesn’t need more rent control laws I was wrong about what Max was saying there See how I did that?

Thanks for admitting that you’re not working class, big step here! Now since you’re not working class, how about not telling working class people that they should be fine w/ 5% - 10% rent increases because that’s not something us working class people can afford
