Dogs And Rent Control?

Last fall, Milei eliminated what The Wall Street Journal termed one of the world's "strictest" rent-control laws. Per its report: "The Argentine capital is undergoing a rental-market boom. Landlords are rushing to put their properties back on the market, with Buenos Aires rental supplies increasing by over 170 percent. While rents are still up in nominal terms, many renters are getting better deals than ever, with a 40 percent decline in the real price of rental properties when adjusted for inflation."

 We have a known problem with the lack of sufficient affordable housing in the US. The last thing we need is rent control. Instead we need people to make available, or build, more housing. People are relinquishing their pets because they either can’t find affordable housing, or they are not finding enough landlords that will allow pets. We need to open up the regulatory blockades that are in the way. If you are an animal welfare advocate, then you should oppose rent control.
