TRD interviews Julia Salazar. Calls out "billionaires 'larping' as middle- or working-class," doesn't believe in building more homeless shelters, calls herself Marxist, "can't really imagine" buying property (despite trust fund & $110k job + per diems?)https://therealdeal.com/2019/06/18/sen-julia-salazar-bane-of-the-real-estate-industry-talks-rent-laws-and-property-rights/ …
How hard is it to ask better questions? I assume that these people work for a real estate publication and therefore should know enough about the industry to prove deeper than, ‘what about the people who think hire a communist?’

Getting her to say she considers herself s Marxist was interesting to me...although I would’ve liked some more substantive policy questions as well, like about housing supply

My feeling is: congrats on being a Marxist! Now tell me how your rent control plan is going to counter the deterioration in the housing stock that typically comes with rent control? And what are you going to to do expand the supply of housing on NY?
