Who would have thought that denominating a rent control measure in a currency with a 211%+ inflation rate would actually not be feasible compared to rent control in a nation where the inflation rate is like 2%?
No wonder the landlords weren't renting as many units to people, because the rent control was being made financially infeasible by hyperinflation.
