Agree 100% with you. Treating housing as an investment VS a human right is what got us here in the first place.

Housing in San Francisco is not a human right.

But your anger is misdirected. The distortion in the housing market is the direct and predictable result of specific government policy, of which TFA is just more of the same.

In this case by “more of the same” what I mean is a policy which will do nothing to solve the problem. This particular law seems to be relatively harmless.
