Topic	Berlin residents vote to nationalise mega-landlords
s0nicfan 09/27/21 4:57:04 PM #44:	Alteres posted... If the Supreme Court threw out a rent cap you think they would allow this? To be specific, their SC ruled that a city can't institute a rent cap because that has to happen at the federal level, not that a rent cap itself is unconstitutional. IIRC in that case there was already a national rent cap and Berlin tried to supercede the federal cap with their own, lower cap. So the SC position on that particular ruling doesn't automatically rule out the constitutionality of what Berlin is trying to do here, but it could likely be rejected on the same grounds. --- "History Is Much Like An Endless Waltz.
