    Not explicitly, maybe, but implicitly, absolutely, and in multiple ways:

    • Supporting the system that creates one over the other
    • Having ‘bootstrap’ attitudes about the poor
    • Worrying about property value over utilization
    • Complaining about the homeless rather than the lack of action on housing
    • Voting against people who run on public housing

    In so, so many ways, people say they prefer the latter over the former. Usually just with the caveat that the homeless people also be invisible.

        I think a simple law that if there is a building, it must be in a repaired state.

        In St. Louis a person opened large portions of the city where they’ve let the holes decay.

        He should have to keep them in a proper upkeep or tear them down.

          Fuck anyone that uses money to buy things and let them rot. That’s a purposefully broad statement.

            I agree. I wish I could find an article on this guy but he is just hoarding and letting it rot. Has something to do with taxes.

      I wonder who is doing this voting? Oh, it’s people who live in the areas we can’t afford to live in. And capitalists add lobbying power to those voters selfish interests.
