Related to your equal-protection observation: An interesting thought experiment is imagining a policy that allows the eviction of those with rent-control in favor of those who can demonstrate more financial need. I'm trying to imagine how to form this so I can propose it to San Franciscans with rent control when they express ire about techies and the Ellis Act. I'm extremely curious how they will react/respond when they are asked to explicitly acknowledge their position of privilege relative to someone less well off. Unrelated: Ultimately what we need is the startup equivalent of cities, where people abandon the status quo in established cities and seek out new civic models. Given the right location, I would consider being a founding citizen in a "startup city".
