[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I can't stand these YIMBY do gooder twerps. They want to raze all SFHs to build dense crap.  They love standing on their moral pedestals when they're too stupid to realize they're destroying the middle class and doing the bidding of the billionaires for free.  Owning a home is pretty much the ONLY wealth vehicle the middle class has left.  But the do gooders want to raze your homes and build giant apartment complexes next to them.  Absolutely no one wants to live next to that junk.  The middle class will flee, and guess what, developers come in taking all the homes and building a whole  bunch of rental crap.

In their infinite wisdom, the YIMBYs and affordable housing idiots are sweeping the last leg of wealth out that is left for the middle class.  They ate going to turn the entire counry into permarenters for life.  And over time the middle class will be far worse off, because no one will be able to own anything, then they'll still jack up your rents on you in the end.  The biggest thing elitists want to control now is land and property ownership.  And all these clownshow housing morons are obtaining it for them by ruining your neighborhoods with their amazingly stupid zoning plans.[/quote]

People keep saying that -- eliminating all SFHs.  But that's not true, and it's not how things will go in practice.   Nobody is bulldozing your house down.[/quote]

I am not in this area but we have the exact same thing happening here (Chicago suburb, 100% of the city council is a member of some sort of green initiative) and they do it piecemeal. Every time a business owner dies or retires the town snaps up the property and then “deliberates” over what to do with it before selling it to a developer who inevitably builds “transit oriented housing” I e hulking, almost windowless apartments with no parking lot. So a downtown that 10 years ago had restaurants and shopping is now lined with hideous apartment buildings. They are always crying about the overcrowded schools and then build this!! [/quote]
