It’s appalling that both sides of the aisle in the legislature are opposing that plan which doesn’t even go far enough as it is. It’s shameful that we don’t build more. I’ll hold on to my sort of run down yet rent stabilized apartment as long as possible because lol not like in middle age w a good job I can afford a house without an inheritance at this point.

No one who takes the post seriously is also serious about actual solutions to any of this.

Hahaha there is literally not a single sterling thing in this guys record. He’s a con man, serial liar and fraud with a line of victims. Multiple evictions, stealing from veterans for crying out loud, people like you are just so vile and disgusting.

Did you read the article mouthbreather??? He fled prosecution. He’s only admitting to it now and paying restitution because they reopened the case against him in Brazil and he’s trying to avoid more severe penalties. You’re not too smart.

Haha that’s actually a crime genius, and it only took him ten years to pay any consequences because he fled Brazil before he could be prosecuted. What a hero.

Hahah yes they have such a lack of funding from the Koch brothers alone. You’re a moron.

No srsly why are there so many rats on this city and why do I live here.

Haha yeah I have racist relatives from li who live in shitty towns full of republicans who say the same thing. “Our new neighbors are from Bangladesh, we are diverse too! Now don’t build apartments in our town!!! The poors shouldn’t be able to live here because my kid won’t be safe in little league!”

“I don’t care about anyone but myself! I am the definition of a selfish asshole!!” Lol.

Lmao. Yes because when granny Maria from Sicily bought her house for $50k it was exactly the same as the burden on working Americans now to come up with a $300k down payment. Give me a fucking break.

You’re in over your head with someone much smarter than you please stop.

Pretty much every formerly working class white town on the south shore of LI sweet pea is filled with assholes like you. And many parts of queens and Brooklyn, including dyker heights.

Oh look a timely article the moron won’t read!

“Poverty persists in America because many of us benefit from it. We enjoy cheap goods and services and plump returns on our investments, even as they often require a kind of human sacrifice in the form of worker maltreatment. We defend lavish tax breaks that accrue to wealthy Americans, starving antipoverty initiatives. And we build and defend exclusive communities, shutting out the poor and forcing them to live in neighborhoods of concentrated disadvantage”

Of course you were raised in dyker height. Is that shocking to anyone here? You’re insufferable.

Except the people who need access to affordable housing outnumber your kind. That’s why change is coming. Time to move south grandpa.

And you sound disturbingly like so many of the white racists i grew up with, that I was so fortunate to escape from. I wouldn’t raise my kid around people like you if someone gave me an entire free house in whatever suburban queens neighborhood you lord over.

“Fanatics” lol. You mean people who think more people should have a better shot at home ownership or affordable rent? Also not shocked at all your moms house sold for so much. People with generational wealth often like to protect it at all costs while denying the chance to build it for those they deem undeserving.

Course he is.

“I see nothing wrong with literally overtly racist zoning laws that have been used for decades to keep towns like mine whiter.” Honestly if you know nothing about the racist history of zoning laws perhaps you should, I don’t know, shut the fuck up?

Oh honey. I grew up in a town a hop Skip and jump From Douglaston. My youth was spent dealing with whiny, sometimes hysterical, often overtly racist white people decrying the increasing diversity in the town, ie, the arrival of many more black and Latino people in their once comfortably majority white town. If you think some of these places aren’t bastions of racism I have a bridge to sell you.

I’m so sick of these pricks. Society doesn’t exist to protect your one family house. Asshole.

People thinking $150k is a ton of money here is kinda funny. He could have a lot of debt, taxes take a huge chunk. I’m not saying cry me a river if I make around that but it is NOT like you are set for life if you make that salary here. Trust me. (I admittedly didn’t read this yet). $150k for a family of three is middle class here yes I’ve looked.

This city is becoming a joke. Build more fucking housing. And that includes in the nearby suburbs.

Hot take guy. I think every goddamn one of this hypocrite grifter criminals lies should be exposed and you damn well know if this was a democrat Fox News would be showing this shit 24/7 so spare me.

Lmao. Yes what 26 year old didn’t have (checks notes) multiple eviction proceedings against him at once, later running for congress and winning and railing against people who don’t work for a living.

Fyi I’ve been here a long ass time and I’ve never been evicted from anywhere but okay guy. It’s not merely the eviction history it’s the fucking hypocrisy. He’s a liar and a fraud with a trail of victims.

Someone will chime in soon with a shady source claiming Biden or AOC was once evicted from somewhere also.

It’s also funny how you assume the rising cost of housing is somehow the fault of people who have stabilized apartments. Would love to see data on that.
