[quote=Anonymous] [quote]Seems like you need to play some sim city and let the adults actually live in the real world but to start why are liberals so obsessed with trying to add more poor people to areas why should we subsidize employers instead of [b]letting the market run things [/b]which if there are truly shortages would require employers to raise wages please take an economics course [/quote] "I support the free market that is why I want to have zoning that prevents people from doing what they wish with their own property, and I want to demonize developers for seeking profits" This is beyond parody. In fact the push to reform zoning unites (some) liberals who want more economic integration AND libertarians who oppose limits on markets and who HAVE studied economics. The opposition is not about markets, its about old people (both liberal and conservative) who oppose change and want to use the power of the state to block change. [/quote]
