- dghlsakjg 6y agoPeople in office and writing legislation also tend to be home-owners and landlords. I recently became a home-owner, and while I live in a place that is undeniably in a housing crisis, I don't want 'them' to make drastic changes to housing policy now that I have most of my net worth tied into a home. From a clinically logical perspective, I fully support drastic changes that would make building more and denser housing MUCH easier. Just -ya know- not so close to my back yard.
