No argument from me on that score. ...nor even that SF political culture lead to the current state.
But getting rid of artificial housing constraints is a far cry from saying: how dare non-rich people even think they should be able to live somewhere with good economic opportunities and a high quality of life.
I agree. How embarrassing for them that they even think they're worthy to be in the same geography as those who live in SF. Poor people should go to poor cities without economic resources, jobs or infrastructure. Say Detroit! That way they can be with other poor people and know their 'place'.
Residents of those cities can barely wait for the influx to take what few jobs they have and drive down already low wages, that's why illegal aliens are welcomed with such open arms.
