> For the first time, a housing project of any height, any density, with any lot coverage and any or no parking, can be constructed in the vast majority of the Bay Area. As long as developments are 20% low-income or 100% middle-income and are environmentally sound, they can be certified by local planning departments with a swift, administrative approval.

That does sound like decent news?? Wonder what qualifies as low income in Cali though.

I think it came from about 20 years of Dem governors...Lynch, Shaheen and Hassan. People wanted a change and Sununu comes from political royalty, here. Fairly moderate by today's standards. Not sure he's got much left in the tank, though

Recently flew to NYC and it was my daughter's first flight, she's 9, she mentioned it to the cabin crew who was chatting to her. As we landed they handed her a certificate covered in stickers and signed by the cabin crew celebrating her first flight. She also got to hand out the lollies just before landing. It was so lovely. They also message during the night to see if you want hot panini's and chocolate cookies.

I live in Portland oregon, where I vote for some of the most liberal people in the country to hold office.

Yet, I can’t go to target down the street to buy diapers without stepping over needles. There’s over 6,000 homeless people on the street, and ravaging our public parks. Hearing gunshots is very normal now. So you tell me. Why are these “progressives” failing so hard to run a decent city?
