Anything but build affordable housing or abolish rent. It’s like that “no way to prevent this” Onion article.
You don't even have to abolish rent. There are giant predatory companies, small local landlords that got lucky with their timing, and everything in between. They're getting money for doing nothing, and aren't going to start contributing to society just because they have to be less wealthy for no effort! Slash rents now to get people homes, and implement rent control and price ceilings.
