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

So i lived in brooklyn which most of the housing was 2 and 3 family housing. You can still have all of what you like aboutnyour neighborhood with more than just single family houses. The buildings in queens are two story two family housing that take approxiamitely the same footprint as a single family house. Nimby people like you expect things to just stay the same which is ridiculious. Maybe we should tear down all the dense housing andbbring ny back to being open land because nothing should change?

As long as so many people have the wealth tied up in property, whoever moves to devalue it will face electoral backlash. Democracy rules!

I'm not rich. I'm middle class. And I intend to stay that way and help my children do the same or better. I won't apologize for that.

assuming you own a home you may not be rich but your doing far better off than a lot of people. even the poorest americans are richer than the majority of poeple in the world. also the middle class really isn't a thing.

people need to learn to live with people that make less than them. you and your children can still do well if there happen to be lower-income people living in an apartment building next to you. if your whole argument is "but we've never had anything other than single-family housing here, my property values may change" is a weak argument.

Why do I have to learn t live any way that I don't want to? Who made you boss?

I learned in college that poverty is a factor in crime. Fewer poor people means less crime. I wish them well but don't want myself or my family to be sacrificed for someone else's ideals. Sorry!

I don't have to. I live in a safe, clean, quiet neighborhood. And besides, my property is getting sweet ROI!.

Good for you. Then deal with the multifamily properties when they come. Enjoy!

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

I don't care what anyone but my immediate family needs. Therefore I will be an impediment to change that doesn't suit my interests. I don't owe you a thing!!!!
