"The lack of supply means rents and housing values increase faster than necessary. For homeowners, this is a boon, as their assets keep appreciating. For renters, this means an ever-increasing cost of living and for some, an impetus to pack up and leave."https://mobile.nytimes.com/2017/11/03/opinion/california-fires-housing.html?referer=http://m.facebook.com/ …

Wow, opportunizing on north bay fires to beat up on SF again. Quite a stretch.

More than 30 years of downzoning and seeking the"right" supply has failed to creat an affordable city. You're policy ideas have lead to a chronic shortage, and to exactly what you bemoan: people treating housing as investment.

No interest here in your ideological debates and tiring diatribe. You clearly didn't read the piece from Vancouver mayor and chief planner.

Peter, if you ever showed up in support of any of the MR infill you supposedly support, I would eat my hat. You are personally someone who never debates in good faith. Why would we engage with you? You lie with such abandon, you have made yourself irrelevant.
