Air bnbs are a cancer. You should be ashamed of yourself if your buying property then renting it out. With what they charge they are able to pay tge mortgage in 3 nights
Funny how we vilify those who are renting it out, but not those that are renting. Its the scalper argument all over again. Blaming the seller, but not the buyer who creates the market. If no one rents, then no one is going to buy to set up an airbnb.
And this is why governemental regulation is the only way and why capitalism has its problems: Capitalists blaming the consumenr for the existing market. People will use the offer the capitalists create for them if it is convenient for them and they draw an advantage from it. Of course you can always blame the consumer, and protect the guy who out of pure compassion creates a market that destroys our world even faster. But hey, at least someone profitet from it in the meanwhile.
I’d agree with you a lot more if AirBnB wasn’t a lot cheaper than any hotel or other travel accommodation. A town that relies on tourism might be different, but in the USA I save about $100 and get a more private place to stay.

Don’t hate the player, hate the game.
That what the billionaire says when I tell them how bad their private jets and yachts are for the environment.
Not quite. There’s no game there. That’s just excess.
This is the bullshit that allows this kind of game. Hate the player, hate the game, and hate the observer with a dumb fuck outlook.
False. I try my best to win at whatever ruleset is in front of me. Its human nature and game theory.
The game of capitalism is absolute horseshit. You should hate it. Work to tear it down if you’re up for it.
I took the cowardly - if you can’t beat them join them - approach.
I’ll bet my life will be better than yours given our choices though. So who’s right?

What about induced demand?

Be better.
