We don't like arbitrary ejection under false pretenses. A landlord cannot jack up the rent just to drive the tenant or tenants out. They have to have a valid cause. Tenants have rights too.

Some people support rent control because they don’t have their own houses and they want to rent a house with a reasonable and affordable price.

It is argued by most economists, including a number of neo-classical and Keynesian economists[9] that some forms of rent control regulations create shortages and exacerbate scarcity in the housing market by discouraging private investment in the rental market.[10] This analysis targeted nominal rent freezes, and the studies conducted were mainly focused on rental prices in Manhattan, or elsewhere in the United States.
