I think you misjudge political forces. Taking on both developers & nimbys ensures crushing defeat. Serious left candidates invariably side with 1 or the otherhttps://www.thebaycitybeacon.com/politics/the-clintonism-of-the-left/article_34462484-b764-11e7-abc5-a33553fddc35.html …

See this is a bit slippery. Do you think social housing is impossible or do you think it's bad?
