They're not freezing your rent, they're freezing your housing providers' income, while their expenses keep increasing.
The point isn't to make your housing affordable, it's to make providing housing financially inviable, so government(s) can seize the unmanageable properties.
Our lack of financial literacy is going to destroy us.

NYC Mayor Zohran Mamdani getting a multi-billion dollar bailout from the state and then claiming he cut the deficit to $0 is one of the most mind-blowing examples of socialist math ever.
Yeah, before we invented capitalism, you could just go frolic in the woods!
Berries would pick themselves.
Deer would stroll right up, look you in the eye and say “You look hungry,” then politely off themselves at your feet.
The birds would fly up and cook the deer for you.
Trees would topple over and conveniently assemble themselves into perfect little log cabins.
It was paradise.
