So with that logic we should allow slums to pop up? Just because it’s now got “luxury” in-front of it doesn’t make it any less of one.

I live in a rental. Are you telling me I live in a slum?

Slums don’t just “pop up”. They are created through anti-renter and anti-multifamily policies.

You're being disingenuous arguing that all new rental constructions are "slums." There can be standards and building codes in place. But restricting supply WILL fuck people over while benefitting the landlords you claim to be targeting.

By reducing the supply of available housing, *my* plan will ensure renters bid against one another for what little remains which will hurt the greedy landlords by causing prices to... uh... well... oh... wait, see... um...

Hey, "supply and demand" is real top-tier, PhD-level economics stuff! You can't expect just *anyone* to understand such complex math! PS:Sarcasm.

"slums" is doing a lot of work there, including some you probably don't want it to be doing.

...dude. You are saying that any property not owned by its inhabitants is a "slum." You are absolutely nowhere near as progressive as you think you are. You are classist as fuck.
