Lived here for all my life, and I’ve seen neighborhoods wrecked by overdevelopment. At some point, enough is enough, and we need to stand up to the crooked real estate industry.

You act like migration is a bad thing. Or new. It’s neither. People have been moving from NYC to other places in big numbers since the city was founded. Without international immigration, we’d have net population loss.

The solution for people who want a cheaper place to live is to move somewhere cheaper. It’s not that complicated.
