This shouldn't surprise anyone. The Bernank literrally wrote a self praise "historic account" of the GFC that he helped create. Such a douche.

As far as I am aware, one must get planning permission to operate as an airbnb in Dublin (not sure about the whole country). While we haven’t stopped the multinational corporate hedge funds from buying up new housing estates for rental only adding to the housing supply problems, the treatment of airbnb is some effort to avoid ripping the hearts out of communities altogether.

A few years ago, when I lived in New Orleans, the city put new restrictions on short-term rentals (aka converting homes and condos into hotels). And short term rentals are not allowed at all in the French Quarter. I guess that’s simply ignored and, like most laws in the city, often not enforced.

When I bought my current condo (in another city), I specifically wanted a HOA that doesn’t permit short term rentals. Every realtor I spoke to seemed to think that such prohibitions are negative. Not if you’re looking for a home rather than running a hotel!
