The best way to destroy the power of landlords is to nationalize housing and abolish landlords, you just want to make more literal lords who make money by doing nothing and sucking the blood of people who can’t afford homes.

Cool let me know when you get the political power that would let you nationalize housing and "abolish landlords". Meanwhile in the real world cities like Austin have allowed more building of units and rent has fallen

Wow that graph would be impressive if it wasn’t also showing the fact rent climbs an astronomical degree every single year even before the pandemic

With nothing but a policy change Austin rents have dropped 7.5% each year, they're now below pre pandemic levels. Unlike your fantasy that you have no way of accomplishing

It's 2025, they dropped even more from the 2024 price. Anyway you've dodged the question, how are you getting the power to implement your dream?

So they again dropped to a price that was already ludicrously prohibitively expensive? Wow! Also I plan on getting people like Fateh elected so rent control spreads nation wide and forces the building of government housing

Many places have rent control. How much government housing have those places built after enacting it?

Their "response" is to avoid the question and basically go "I know you are but what am I", which is telling

many places have your preferred laissez faire policies, rent is still unaffordable

You are way too unpleasant a person to be this clueless on a topic

(Psst if we nationalized all housing the NIMBY pressures that make it difficult for private developers to build at scale will still exist for public government development)
