[quote=Anonymous]The truth is, individual choices aren’t going to get us out of the problems of gentrification any more than unfocused recycling is going to fix the environment. We need big structural change. By voting for politicians who will effect change. Just like we need corporate regulation at the macro level to help fix global warming, we need societal change to fix gentrification. A few things off the top of my head are property tax caps for the elderly, first time home buyer programs, resources for schools that don’t have a high earning tax base, etc. In the meantime, you still need a place to live OP. Just be a good neighbor. Try to advocate for all kids at your child’s school. And vote for local politicians who will help the original residents of your community. [/quote]
