Reply to comment by isowater in Douglaston residents come out against Hocul’s affordable housing plan by Russianb0t1

Devaluing real estate is akin to devaluing social Security. It's an electoral 3rd rail. Have at it. Whoever votes for that will be out of a job comes next election cycle.

That might be the case now, but as more property is bought out and rented and home ownership declines, the pendulum will swing the other way electorally. If we don't pass sensible legislation now we will have radicalized legislation later. For example see California's state wide zoning changes last year
