California has a new ballot proposition this year that's going to make it easier for cities and towns to enact rent control. In honor of their stupidity, let's play a game.
Apologies for the low-res images. They come from here: https://upsuckercreek.blogspot.com/2017/06/quiz-bombing-or-rent-control.html
The inspiration for this post came from: #694897
I'm also going to play this game with my students in class this week. Wish me luck!
Ahhhh the good ol rent control... we had so much fun with that here :')

I'm guessing you had ridiculous rent control agreements still in place from decades ago.

I think those are the same photos I used with my students.

The blog I linked to is the only one I could find on the net with all 15 photos from the original book, with solutions.
There was another site with higher res scans, but it only had 3 of the photos.

what am I even looking at?
reply
Photos of dilapidated and damaged buildings. The question is: did rent control cause this, or bomb damage?
reply
How can you even tell with such low quality pictures?
reply
You're right. Higher resolution images may be needed to tell the difference between bomb damage and rent control.
reply
High res versions are available on the blog.
