Senate Democrats have removed SB 50 from the docket for the 2019 legislative session. Aiming to tackle housing, public transit and wildfires, it came under fire for loopholes and weak mandates, but policy conversation now proceeds in other venues.

AND the UN is ALL OVER THAT!! SDG at its FINEST!
If the people can’t afford a place to live, where do the activist think 🤔 the people should live? In shelters? This might be racism against the gangsters people in single families who only make $400 or $500 a week. Not wanting to pass this bill isn’t politics, this is crime against the people, who represent humanity. 😫

In reality the two largest cities in California are Los Angeles and San Diego. Number 3 and 4 are San Jose then San Francisco. Just saying.
For dense government public housing near public transport, can look at the example of singapore.
Many poor communiies are not diverse. I remember school kids being bussed in order to increase diversity. Tech employees who moved into the Tenderloin have been accused of gentrifying the area and increasing rents. I believe I have a solution. If moving techies into an area increases rents, perhaps we could mandate Belmont and Hillsborough to allow Oakland inner city residents to relocate there to see if their presence will lead to lower rents and increased diversity….all we need is a seed to take hold.
the fires were set. climate change is not real. this is a way to take land and force people into UN-affordable city ghettos where they will have worse lives. if you want to stop fires stop the geoengineering and the people setting fires like your power company in ca. this is a pol power grab and they always use the crisis they create to force the changes they want. this climate change hoax will lead to humans as slaves on their own planet. people escape the cities because they are corrupt!
Do That many people own ptoperty in Cali , to vote Down rent control ???
I can't help but notice in my wealthy bay area town all the homes built 1848-1990 are all reasonably sized lovely homes. But since then every single home built has been a 5 bedroom+ 2 million dollar+ cathedral house. They are so big and ugly and close together its not even nice. The town then announces they are building affordable housing… they turn out also to be beautiful giant mcmanions in beautiful Spanish style with vaulted ceilings but built by volunteers in the community and then rented to families with disabled children its not real affordable housing or a real solution at all. 3 bedroom homes are renting for almost $5k and are only on the market for 3 days this shit is crazy. There is farmland everywhere and often for sale. Can't the city buy some and build some 2 bedroom single family homes like they did in the 1930s during the depression. People like the 2 bedroom great depression homes they are selling for over a million and are made out of recycled timber lol lets have some new ones.
Taller and denser buildings sounds terrible
This is all happening because of silicon valley in the Bay area have way to much power local people hate it when a tech company opens shop in there area because they know housing is going to go up and they have to move to a cheaper area or city.
California dems are deep pocket donor Republicans. They cheated Kimberley Ellis, they're doing Joe Biden like they did Hillary, working directly in opposition to the will of their base, ignoring the wishes of American voters they're supposed to represent in favor of the financial expectations of the military industrial complex.
Amazing how climate doomsayers can tie anything, and everything to CLIMATE CHANGE, except the one most prolific factor…anthropogenic overuse of POLLUTANT SULFATE AEROSOLS!!!
Human deposition of SULFURIC ACID via stratospheric GEOENGINEERING with SULFATE AEROSOLS, PERTURBATED (ie. heated) in our atmosphere, resulting in Secondary Organic AEROSOLS (SOAs), and combining with carbonaceous (PFOS) AEROSOLS…both, major components of our FINE-PARTICLE-POLLUTION, and the most likely contributing factor to CLIMATE CHANGE!!!
They want the poor to have shelter. But no matter how good the housing you give is, they will never be safe places to live. People who are intelligent, can control their emotions, and understand how to follow the rules even when it isnt the best for them personally are rewarded by society already, so they can afford housing, but someone who can only do 2 or less of those three things, well they are going to turn safe places into not safe places. A huge problem is that all of the things they think they are doing to help, Free food, Cheap housing, free anything causes more and more people to group up in small areas. This actually expands the problem in that area, raises taxes in that area, and makes that area even less safe. Which in turn causes people with money who were paying those taxes to leave. The mind flips it takes to think socialist policies are a good idea just says you are trying to play Checkers when the rest of world is playing Chess. We need to take large portions of these inner cities and spread them out to the farm lands and put them to work.
Limousine Liberals run this state. They love the propaganda of caring about the poor and oppressed, IN PUBLIC, but you can see from results that they are often worse than those who profess profit openly. All a game or good cop, bad cop, when they're BOTH bad cops!!
How is your "democracy" working, Americans?
How come all the rich people that say they're Democrats don't like when affordable housing places are built in their neighborhoods? I thought they like those kind of people.
