Airbnb is just a scapegoat for the people who want quick solutions for the damage governments have done for ages. Competition is good and empowering people to make money off their assets (just like Uber) even better. Regulate it and hotels to protect consumers but don't pretend Airbnb's are the cause for housing being unaffordable to rent or buy. Specially not when you're taxing renters like mad and offering little in return. It's always funny reading takes in HN about places where you have first hand knowledge of, whether it be a geographic location or a company.
