stop sidestepping, this isn't about Prop 13, this is about what a lot of people say about social housing. the idea that the majority of urbanists have been secret lefties this whole time who love the idea of the public owning housing is demonstrably false

Lydia is my favorite realtor. Complains about gentrification and then sells homes in East Palo Alto for $1M+. Destroys low-income senior housing projects in Palo Alto.

What really irks me is that she has secret knowledge about "plenty of housing", but doesn't share it with us! C'mon, Lydia!

Did they? I don’t remember seeing any @CAREALTORS statement but I could be wrong! They seem very intent about the mother of Prop. 13 intiative though.
