You've mentioned some good reasons -- government price rules being one. I think there are some price supports for milk, though, but they might be set by dairy farmers. But with housing, rent control seems to often give "economic rent" to existing renters, at the expense of everyone else. Bill– A lot of people don’t like rent control, at all.

Rent control is stealing by the government without compensation. Does government tell the grocery store owner what to charge for bread and milk? No!!! Rent control causes rents to be higher. When a tenant moves out a landlord will try to get as much as he can to compensate for rent control. The government should provide low income housing not landlords. Prop.99 is a scam, Prop98 is the real deal. Prop.98 would not affect rent control until the renter moves out. Rent control is stealing by the government without compensation.

The CRA in Los Angeles has removed blighted areas and created some of this city's most attractive areas. Examples include Staples Center, Live in LA, and North Hollywood redevelopement. These two laws enable the poor to live in slums. Prop 99 isn’t as bad as Prop 98 but both will put community redevelopment out of business.
