Anytime government gets involved there is a high potential for problems.
Not sure rent control is the answer. Other than rent control what is
your suggestion?

I know how bad the homelessness is getting. Lots of young people that
can work or bettering themselves won't look for work or better
themselves because they think they can bum more money from drivers at
intersection that what you can make at a job. Lots of those young
people are becoming destructive towards other people property like
it's a big thrill to them and at most bus stops it's getting dangerous
just trying to go past a bus stop when in a wheelchair. I'm in a
wheelchair and have to go past those stops just to go to the store..I
also see elderly people living on the streets because their rents were
jacked up to force them out so Landlords can fix them up to have high
paying tenants. Phoenix doesn't have rent control and there is a big
shortage in fire and police officers too.

On top of that in case you haven't noticed the homeless population has
exploded in the Phoenix area.
Try ridding the bus-public transportation, with these people who sadly
in some cases haven't had a bath
or shower in some time.
Its really sad that the American culture has been broken so badly that
one has to help others see what
is in plain sight. We live adjacent to a state with arguably the
worst
homeless population in the country.
Have you ever stopped to ask yourself or others what is the cause of
all this???????
High gas prices.
unaffordable housing.
many households living paycheck to paycheck.
explosion in crime.
explosion in homelessness.
recreational drug use on the rise for a civilization like ours and you
think this is normal?
$14 Billion in aid to Ukraine while all this is happening?
Where is that money going?
How about a hired mercenary army to fight Russia per the refuges from
the Middle East.
Why do you think they pushed for EU to take in refuges from the middle
East?
By the way, EU doesn't have children like the previous generations did
and thee now
know it takes at least 2.0 children per couple to keep an empire alive
so these people
from Africa and others are nothing but blood and treasure to these
neo-cons.
Tech people are usually some of the smartest in a civilization
historically speaking.
As per Thucydides the country that rules in technology rules the
world.
Surely the breadth and width of your understanding goes further than
these few talking points.
How about this.
There is a real effort to turn us all in the West into a Socialistic
civilization based on Plato's Republic.
Democracy?
Try a empire ruled by a Philosopher king as he stated in his book.
The
problem is there is no person
on this earth that is perfect and never will be. We have a Republic,
not a Democracy in the USA.
Dig a little deeper and try a little harder to understand your world.
If you don't find the truth there are
many out there looking for the naïve to take advantage of.
Plato's Republic.
Plato's Meno.
Plato's Timaeus.
Plato's Protagoras.
St. Augustine's City of God.
Aristotle's Ethics.
Jean-Jacques Rousseau - The Social Contract.
Jean-Jacques Rousseau - Discourse on Inequality.

I just paid $4.49 at Costco which was only .07/gallon less than

I can only hope our national politicians pull their heads from their
rectum and open domestic oil production again soon.
They're blaming Ukraine, but it was already approaching $4 before
Russian invaded.
If anyone had doubts that overreliance on foreign supply chains could
be problematic, the last several years should have made it clear.
I feel really sorry for poor people... how are they coping with these
price increases everywhere?
