This is functionally indistinguishable from MAGA rhetoric re: immigrants What if we built enough homes so that the elderly and their adult children+families could both live there?

And what about the non rich people who want to move to Minneapolis? Besides, rich people will be fine. They'll outbid someone poorer for limited supply. If there were sufficient housing available, they wouldn't have to You seem extremely uninformed about this

They can wait in line for a rent controlled apartment like everyone else?

That’s moronic lmao, alright so citizens of a city should be kicked out for being poor to make way for rich transplants that can afford insane rent prices?

You are describing what happens when there is insufficient housing! That is what already happens! Vincent the VC bro moves to a new city. Competition for units is fierce. He can afford to pay $2400 for a $1200 unit. He gets the unit. Laura Librarian and Walter Waiter get screwed, not Vincent

If there were sufficient housing then Vincent could get a nice luxury unit in a place that's worth his budget, and Laura or Walter could get the older, cheaper unit now that Vincent isn't driving the price up
