What is the actual evidence that rent control is bad? Does it stand up to scrutiny? Is it possible that maybe, just maybe, rent control good?

In this NEW BONUS EP only for BEAUTIFUL GENIUSES, the Wrong Boys read the whole Abundance Book and they give it a fair hearing, including some props for a few good points, but ultimately are more annoyed by its’ shortcomings like non-sequitur arguments, strange structure, some bad points, and sterilized political agenda (which is one which intentionally eschews analyzing power.)
