Yet all common folk uses Airbnb for short rentals unless you are rich enough to afford a Hotel. Sure some regulation is required, but would you rather have a few Hotel chains corner the market on short stays and rentals?

Where I am AirBnB is generally around the same cost as a hotel. It used to be cheaper but not anymore.
Everyone wants to be paid a lot and have lots of cheap options to consume. This is untenable. I'd rather everyone have affordable homes than affordable holidays.
