Your claim to a right to do whatever you want with your property extends to neighbors. Might not like what they have in mind.

pendulum is too far in one direction. You're against people building affordable cottages in their backyard?

Not if they're allowable. It's the "I can do whatever I want with my property" BS that's nonsensical.

The I can do what I want with my property leads to affordable prices in Japan & Germany, which has a Constitutional right to build

Yeah, housing is so available & affordable under RTB that Berlin adopted rent control last year that's tougher than SF's.

I never said anything against rent control. Germany has historically had both strong rent control & strong "right to build"

You said Germany's RTB leads to affordable prices. If they're so affordable, why does Berlin need rent control?

German housing policy is more neutral between tenants & property owners. Homeownership rate is 40%. Always had strong RC.
