[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] Elrich is a progressive by most standards. He's definitely left wing on economics... taxes, labor issues, and generally critical of capitalism. Where he is arguably not progressive is on housing, which is a thing that really divides the left. It's interesting, because the far left and the far right align on anti-development issues. The right wants to protect property values and rich white neighborhoods from change. The far left, some of it anyways, sees development as shilling for corporate landlords. [b]Elrich interestingly has support from right-wing NIMBYs and left-wing tree huggers and anti-capitalists. [/b] A lot of the left and center-left is pro housing density, but the far left often opposes housing when it's left to the markets. [/quote] Aka right-wing NIMBYs and left-wing NIMBYs.[/quote]
