Turns out if you don’t build new buildings, there’s not really anywhere to put new people. You just start losing quality of life as rents go up and people start doubling up in rooms, families move out (because you can’t afford roommates who don’t pay rent), etc. This is what the voters here wanted and have been voting for the entire time. Not that I like the outcome either, but considering SF is a pretty wealthy and culturally influential place, I don’t feel sorry for them in the least. It’s just the outcome of decades of policy with public support.
