Why does housing have to be an investment, though? Wouldn't it be better for everyone if we could buy and sell properties for (more or less) what they're actually worth?

Reply to comment by johnbrownbody in You must STOP for pedestrians in crosswalks! by thegrumpycarp
I’m going to disagree slightly. Mid block crosswalks can be great, but the ones in DC are implemented horribly. I consider myself to be a conscientious driver and I still have trouble with mid block crosswalks like the one on 14th street and R/S Street. It’s especially difficult on a Friday/Saturday night if you’re unfamiliar with the area: it’s dark, people are everywhere, and there are absolutely zero physical traffic calming measures to indicate to a driver that they are approaching a crosswalk.
I don’t want to run anyone over, but I almost did when I drove through 14th street at night for the first time because it’s just such a mess.
