It's certainly a moral issue, but it's not Facebook's moral issue. It's an affordable housing issue that Bay Area cities are failing miserably at.

- Chaebixi 9y agoIf it's a moral issue, it's hard to give Facebook a pass for going "not my problem." Especially since they have the cash to actually act morally.
- landryraccoon 9y agoYou're not really addressing the point of the person you replied to. Increasing wages does not help if the housing supply is the underlying problem, since everyone is still bidding for a fixed resource. It just means everyone pays more rent. Wage increases in the bay area are always at least partially wealth transfers directly to landowners. Facebook can't solve that by paying more, the housing policy in the bay needs to change to allow more density.
