hb - Random quote from Basic Economics by Thomas Sowell, pg 26 - "...Rent control has effects on supply as well as on demand... In Paris, subject to rent control beginning in the First World War and continuing on past the Second World War, new apartment buildings became so rare that a 1948 survey showed that 90% of the city's buildings were built before the First World War, more than half before 1880 and more than a quarter before 1850..."
