Piecemeal fees are a way of protecting the scarcity that enables existing housing to be a great store of wealth while feeling "progressive"

Wealth isn't Nimby primary focus! It's our different view of what is livable vs the density crowd.

Yimby outlook is largerly environmental too. Every home not built in urban core is sprawled out, often to CA Central Valley.

And wealthier people who don't want to live in a little box in an overcrowded city.

The boxes could be bigger if we up-zoned the city above 45 feet. Or allowed more than one unit in 45 foot height limits.

Yeah but developers maximize profits with higher numbers of little boxes. Anyway, "the bigger the box, the bigger the gentrifier" lol
