Utopia smells like a high-rise housing project in a ghetto.

Local control of zoning and land use decisions is ideal, but it has one major drawback that haunts major metro areas for decades at a time. I see this all the time in my line of work. The typical scenario is a region where municipalities resist all attempts by a state government to meddle in their land use decisions, but then turns around and demands huge piles of state funding for the infrastructure that is needed to support those land use decisions.

The typical symptom of this problem is the chronic congestion you see on major highways all over the U.S.

I do think we do need to ease land use restrictions to make housing more affordable, although this a local and state issue, not a Federal one. As is, many people are being priced out of the housing market.

Jeez, you’d think the people who’ve been on and on about the coof being so deadly would have a mad-on for multi-family dwellings, legal or otherwise...

But they don’t, do they.

Because these zoning changes aren’t about fairness any more than CoupFlu policy is about protecting public health.

On the plus side I will be able to build a high rise apartment on my land next door to all my liberal voting neighbors.

If you refuse to go to the ghetto, they’ll bring the ghetto to you. I am already seeing this in the outskirts of Bethlehem PA, near East Hills Middle School. It used to be a nice neighborhood, then they decided to build an apartment complex that has lured in all the Obama democrats. The result has been predictable with an increase in crime and urban blight. Democrats turn everything into shit!

Just what we need: Judge Dredd-style mega-blocks.

Fiancee and I moved into an apt while we were looking for a new house. The place was very nice, very expensive and turns out 50% ghetto. On juneteenth they had a party at the pool and took up all of the grills so we could not use them and we were told to use some other. They broke some glass beer bottles which are not allowed and now the pool is closed to everyone for the foreseeable future. 100+degrees expected for the next couple of weeks. We found a house and hopefully will be breaking our lease a month early to get out of there. Diversity - looking forward to the new neighborhood.

Property freedom, travel freedom, education freedom, crime freedom.

Democrat scum despise the freedom that suburbs provide.

“...Democrats Want to Get Rid of the Suburbs...”

They have been working this agenda for a long time, now

They want to flood the suburbs with criminals, gangs, rapists, and murderers.

"Why Democrats Want to Get Rid of the Suburbs"

The destruction of the middle class--the bourgeoisie--one of their top priorities. That's communism101.

Karl Marx said that the bourgeoisie is the greatest impediment to the establishment of the worldwide communist "utopia."

Millions of people have fallen for his fundamentally evil designs.

Marx acknowledged that horrible, violent class warfare and the establishment of a police state would be necessary--even desirable, which speaks volumes about Marx the man!

And one of the glaring fallacies of his absurd design is that once this global police state had established worldwide communism, the need for government would MIRACULOUSLY vanish and everyone would live in harmony without government and without any need for government. In other words: "A miracle will take place."

Anybody who falls for that kind of snake oil is a fool, but there are obviously millions of fools in the world--and that's not the only flaw in his load of hogwash.

The part they can’t say out loud: all high density apartment buildings vote majority Democrat. Suburbs have swing voters. Planting one high density apartment building is an easy way to throw an area to a Democrat majority, 100% of the time. It’s low-hanging fruit for establishing permanent one-party rule.

When food prices double and gas goes to $10/gal, rural people who commute 60-80 miles a day round trip won't be able to afford to live rural and will have to move towards the cities. Multi-family dwellings will be needed. The extra money in those areas' economies will allow them to be like the cities with a camera on every corner, gunshot sound detectors. By that time we'll also have our digital IDs to spend our digital money.

Agenda 2030 is right around the corner. Rural land will go back to wild like they want it to.

If the globalists get their way.

“housing justice”

Another commie utopian tactic in their never ending race-to-the-bottom quest to turn us into a third world hellhole.
