With the incredible emergency we have, you would think, someone would be working hard to change the laws. It's an entirely man made emergency, that need not be. Perhaps it'll take a start up company of politicians to "change the world" to address these types of issues.
- ninkendo 9y agoGoogle not being to develop more offices is by no means “an incredible emergency”. The fact that there’s not enough space for people to live, that may qualify as one.
- pascalxus 9y agoI meant the housing situation overall in the bay area is an incredible emergency.
- averagewall 9y agoGrowing property values isn't an emergency for homeowners who are the voters who keep these zoning laws in place. It's not that they aren't trying to solve the problem, it's that they are trying to make it "worse" and would fight anyone who tries to solve it. Tyranny of the majority. Politicians don't have that power - they'll be kicked out if they harm their constituents' interests.
