Price fixing only works if supply is constrained via some kind of cartel, which cities often have by way of density limits and NIMBYism.

Not a Trump voter, but this is a huge area where many Democrats are flat wrong. Talking to some Democrats about the supply problem with housing is like talking to some Republicans about why a hard line abortion ban makes maternal mortality go up. It can’t possibly be true because the ideology says it can’t be true.
