Rent control needs means testing. It suppresses mobility when the googler making $300k doesn’t move to a place they’d rather have because their current unit is so far below market rate, which hurts the minimum wage worker who could have lived there.


Are there many googlers making $300k in Berlin?


Some management positions might do. The average SWE in Berlin is closer to 60..80k€
