    So just because this one thing won’t solve the problem on its own we shouldn’t do it

    Just to be clear, you agree that more buildings won’t solve the problems they’re saying it will here, right?

      I agree that doing this and nothing else isn’t enough, but it will help and there isn’t any other one thing that would solve the problem either. Problems like this require a wide array of answers each of which only help a little but taken together are the solution.

        Once she releases her comprehensive plan that breaks up corporate landlords, promotes housing coops and tenant unions, and outlaws Airbnb I’ll be excited.
