Reply to comment by mdervin in Opinion: New York finally has momentum on housing and it’s time for a breakthrough by King-of-New-York
Who cares about poor ppl amiright? they can just go to the outer boroughs. No one but rich people deserve to live in the city. That's the kinda new York I want, all rich people no riff raff. /s

Right and the best way to care about poor people is to create a housing shortage where middle class people are forced to move to the poor neighborhoods driving up their rents.

Or we could just build affordable housing instead of all luxury, and we could require a unit for anyone displaced by redevelopment.

in every thread where this topic is brought up, and in grass roots organizing, I am advocating for affordability and protection from displacement.
