7 months agoIt's unfortunate how many in the comments just need to express their hatred. At least he's doing something. Nobody else has done anything to increase the ability to build more homes. Democrats won't even open TSA. Yet a man who spent his life building things and working with about 50% of a functional government is try to take some action. As for the "affordability" of everyday items, inflation is below 3%. Investments rolling in from other countries to build infrastructure here. A total reversal of the lost jobs and revenue of the last 30 years. Most of you won't see any of it sue to your blind hatred of the man. Its sad.
7 months agoIf basic life necessities (gas, groceries, clothes, home & auto insurance) are all more expensive, “affordability” changes drastically. So for me, the feelings aren’t mixed. This is veneer. In addition to your reasoning, this does little to nothing but create another false talking point.
7 months agoOptics? Yes. Affordability? No. If we truly want to address housing affordability, we first have to address fair wages.
7 months agoExactly what you said, need more homes being built. In San Diego the permit process alone costs a pretty penny and takes forever.
7 months agoIt excludes new construction, he is a con man through and through, always read the fine print. It’s smoke and mirrors!
7 months agoAffordability is so subjective, what I think is expensive the next person can think its affordable...
