He's also only seizing rent controlled/stabilized apartments.

It's a good plan.

- prevent rent controlled/stabilized apartments from raising rent
- landlord's expenses rise due to inflation, but he can't raise rent
- the only way the landlord can stay afloat is to start cutting corners on repairs
- landlord gets fined for not being in compliance with regulations that cost more than his profit to follow
- Mamdani/city seizes property
- property is given to "responsible" people to run, i.e., people who contributed to Mamdani's campaign
