In America we have a large shortage of housing so developers buy land in the cities and plan to build nice housing on it. But leftists in the cities actually block the construction of new apartments because they're "not affordable enough". Therefore the shortage of housing gets worse and the cost of housing goes up even more. Pic related is a massive development in a sparse areas of New York City, slated to have thousands of apartments and public green spaces. But the leftist city councilor of Queens killed it because it only had 25% affordable housing and she demanded 45%. Basically leftists demand the building have so many public giveaways that it can't be profitable so the building never gets built. They're scared of "gentrification" so they actively work to make their neighborhoods shittier. https://sunnysidepost.com/councilmember-won-urges-colleagues-to-reject-innovation-qns-draws-criticism-from-union-leaders-and-borough-president

It's dumb. Supply and demand very much applies in the rental market. My area has a construction boom recently, and after a 40% spike in rents before and during the pandemic, rents are back down to 2017 levels (nominal). Landlords are desperate, and that's a good thing. Yet city nigger leftists still cling to obviously nonsensical ideas like "affordable housing requirements" and rent control. Up until the 90s, all developers had to do was provide public space as part of their projects. That worked for everyone.

IMO America should do 101st kilometer and relocate niggers to small towns 101km from major cities

>>25644889 these renders look very nice. medium-rise buildings, greenery and architecture that does not put pressure on the psyche are what modern cities need.

>>25645005 True. Niggers are cheap to hire, whether as protestors or as city leaders.

>>25644938 Agreed. But I will say there are a ton of suburban conservative boomers who also pretend supply and demand doesn't apply to housing.

I'm actually amazed at how leftists themselves are the ones killing walkable cities and transit. If you want funding for transit, you need to let people build nice apartments in the city so you have net tax contributors funding infrastructure.

>>25645330 Not even they want walking around niggers.
