[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Keep in mind all this upzoning is a natural and predictable consequence of mass immigration of low wage workers. You can't have your "No human is illegal" and "Stop ICE" yard signs and not expect this.

The upzoning is to provide homes for these people close enough to you that they can mow your lawns, cook your food and watch your kids. They of course would rather live close to the people that defend and employ them rather than to live out in Waldorf or something and commute in for 2 hours for their low-paying jobs.

So rant on as you like, but you're just getting exactly what you asked for. [/quote]

Except they never build anything that the cooks, landscapers, and childcare workers can afford.

The infill building is always very expensive housing, whether it’s for rent or purchase. [/quote]

Maybe I don't get the coded language being used, but then who is "leaving trash everywhere, parking a million cars and generally ruining a neighborhood?" Middle-class millennials? If its not low wage workers, what exactly are you all collectively freaking out about?[/quote]

Well for one thing, these lower wage workers tend to cram as many people as they can into these apartments since none of them can afford them on their own. But people can pretend how that’s not the case. No coded language anywhere. Just the reality that many politicians and activists turn their backs on and pretend it’s not happening because they increased density. [/quote]
