For a San Francisco dream come true
A six car garage, what to do?
Tore it down and built three homes
Each for six-hundred grand, no roams

Erin McAleer, chief executive of Project Bread, explicitly said as much to the Globe: “Folks who make minimum wage and work 40 hours a week — they come home with $2,000 a month. Forget food. You can’t really afford much else but your apartment.”
The market isn't solving Greater Boston's housing crisis. Incentives and mandates aren't steering developers hard enough, either. I think only large-scale social housing development can solve this. Do we even have the tools to get to that? #housing
This week, the Greater Boston Food Bank reported that 1 in 3 people in Mass. struggles to afford enough to eat. Then on Friday, we had this great story about a 500-unit new complex in Dorchester, which desperately needs more *affordably priced* housing. 66 units will be income-restricted; the rest range from $2,500 studios to $5,000 3BRs. How can people eat when housing sucks up all they've got? https://www.axios.com/local/boston/2023/06/01/dot-block-fills-in-a-stretch-of-the-avenue

This is great. I went through this exact situation. Rent raised 25%, building owned by anonymous European investor, forced to leave, etc. This is how I wound up in NJ, and why I'm not moving back into NYC without more tenant rights. In NJ, I have more rights. #Housing #HousingCrisis #NYC

Democrats: Look to #Minnesota’s #Miracle.
The avalanche of #progressive #legislation that the state’s two-vote Democratic majority in the
state House and one-vote advantage in the state Senate have enacted this year is a wonder to behold.
.“Democrats #codified #abortion #rights, #paid #family and #medical #leave, #sick leave, #transgender rights protections, drivers #licenses for #undocumented residents, restoration of #voting rights for people when they are released from prison or jail, wider voting access, one-time rebates, a #tax #credit aimed at low-income parents with #kids, and a $1 billion #investment in #affordable #housing including for rental assistance.”
Take a breath and move on: “Also adopted were #background #checks for private #gun #transfers and a #redflag #warning system to take guns from people deemed by a judge to be a threat to themselves or others.
[Democratic] lawmakers banned conversion therapy for LGBTQ people, legalized recreational marijuana, expanded education funding, required a carbon-free electric grid by 2040, adopted a new reading curricula based on phonics, passed a massive $2.58 billion capital construction package and, at the insistence of Republicans, a $300 million emergency infusion of money to nursing homes.” The mix of tax cuts and increases, by the way, will make the state’s revenue system more progressive

As a value system that prioritizes saving over spending (on miliary) #bitcoin as a #valueSystem is a better way to force capital into #housing.
If people want housing bitcoin more reliably can allocate value to it. Whereas, for example, a bank that, to generate so-called "#interestPayments", will use your money to prop up the likes of #Blackrock and #BillGates that #deracinate the people (read: take people off the land) seems counter to the stated goal, right?

Landlords hide under a mountain of shell entities.
This is some real dirty 30's stuff.
The characterization as 'third world' is a disgusting opportunistic slap, but the real issue is that in 2023 we again have no #housing for people displaced by economic circumstances and they are left to camp in the open.
Reminds of the #depression era folk song Ry Cooder covered some years ago:
How can you keep on moving
Unless you migrate too?
They tell you to keep on moving
But migrate you must not do...
Blame is so easy.

Whatever I think of the #LabourParty's plan on land values & council compulsory purchase to kick-start a #socialhousing revival to alleviate the #housingcrisis, that large #housebuilding firms are against it suggests it cannot be all bad...
Large housebuiders have been making massive profits out of a system that does not serve the country's #housing needs; if they think it won't work for them, then maybe it *is* a good idea, even if they & their allies will try to make it look unworkable?
In #CAPol (as in California) #housing news, the Senate just voted down common-sense reform to allow newer buildings to gradually phase in rent control.
State law preempts any rent control on buildings newer than 1995 (1979 in SF). This would simply have let 1996 buildings qualify starting next year, 1997 buildings the year after that, etc. Hardly a drastic change. Well, now we know who's on the side of landlords against the rest of us.
#Vienna, pop 2M, budgets annually to purchase property so 80% of residents can live in city-owned housing, people of all income levels. Anyone initially making $70k or less who's lived in the city for 2 years is eligible to start. Once in, no evictions allowed. Initial rents are income-based & increase by inflation % in years where inflation is over 5%. Vienna has used this system since the 1930s.

My sister goes to a private Christian university (Why? I can't figure that one out) in Arizona, GCU.
As of today, GCU is making many dozens of low-income people unhoused, by evicting mobile home residents from the property that it bought.
These are the Christian values I keep seeing. The same Christian values of the time of the conquistadores. Profits and property over people's lives.
Lets make that impossible with sensible laws, and massive amounts of housing removed from, or built outside of, the speculator market.
Cities are passing laws to make themselves the buyer of 1st refusal for all housing, taxing empty units, and more.
Investing in heroin sales for profit is not allowed, investing in destroying the housing market should not be either.

We have been told for generations that lowering taxes on the rich helps the economy, and that "increased entitlements" are a burden the taxpayer cannot afford.
These are lies. The truth, borne out by history is this:
Programs that help the poor, the working poor and those unable to work, actually benefit the overall economy and are not a net tax burden on the taxpayers. 1/2

Studios with 400-600 sq. ft. are around $1200-1500 a month.

2B/2B with 900-1100 sq. ft. are around $2200-2700 a month.
And then you can save money by not having basic appliances or picking barely-meets-code units.
Completely unsustainable and extends into all the surrounding suburbs as well. You get nearly identical prices 15 miles out in all directions.

Tomorrow 9am at 2700 Third Ave South another #Minneapolis encampment is slated for destruction.
Displacement over and over again with no #housing provided.
Public pressure on the state is probably most effective here, short of 50 people showing up tomorrow.
#Minnesota is still styling as if they are trying to "achieve housing, racial, and health justice for people facing homelessness" - https://mich.mn.gov/
This is long after mayor "end homelessness in five years" Frey has dropped any such pretense.
The state is moving rapidly to displace people on highway land that aren't even visible from the highway so it's not hard to guess this is city-driven "policy".
The question is how much flack will the Walz, Flanagan, and Commissioner of Transportation Nancy Daubenberger take on Frey's behalf.
Indicates a fairly weak political will— call numbers at the #Minnesota department of transportation and demand they stop this eviction, ask why they are doing displacement when #Minneapolis and #HennepinCounty and the state itself are not #housing all in need, and that you do not want your #transit and #highway dollars going to #violence
Please report which numbers answer, what people say: https://dot.state.mn.us/information/talk.html
I have a friend (details omitted for privacy) who is looking to #GTFOMyState (currently the Southeast US) and move to Seattle or the general area. She's just getting her bearings around her identity and wants a safe place to do that journey.
We're trying to find housing options for her; aside from basic utilities and a place to park, the main need is to be fairly low-cost. She has employable skills but isn't going to be making a ton, at least not at first.
Roommate situations are a possible option but obviously safety is a very high concern so there would need to be some trust established first.
Any resources/suggestions would be super welcome, and boosts are appreciated.
Let's get her a good home!
