You're talking hypothetical, I'm talking factual and historical. There's no 'what ifs' here. There was price fixing and the courts are going to decide the magnitude. What you're saying is not false, it actually makes it worse, making already scarce housing even more inaccessible. It's actually quite amazing to see homeless people on the streets, service workers commuting hours/week, first responders not being able to afford living locally and at the same time more than half the newly built apartments empty just to help keep the price up.
