Lets be honest here.
Its merely a means for the very rich to protect themselves. They simply limit who can live near them by dressing it up in fancy sound good, do good, terms. Protecting the environment, protecting history, and all, is just nice speak for keeping people we don't want away.
As to one highly rated post about the benefits of socialism, it never has or will work. Socialism and capitalism are little different in the end, the first merely concentrates wealth and power in the hands of politicians directly, the later just adds another class that benefits.

San Francisco has been one of the most tolerant cities of alternative lifestyles and even homeless people compared to any other American city. It's easy to claim that the rich just want their gated communities, but if you can't even address the claim that they want to preserve the existing quality of the city without claiming a hidden ulterior class motive then how are we supposed to have an honest dialogue? You can't just unilaterally declare a whole group of people to be lying about their motivations and expect anything productive come out of it.
