Liberals are not really for affordable housing!

Many of the liberals I work with live in a very exclusive neighborhood in Oakland, the Rockridge district, it is full of old Craftsman bungalows built at the turn of the century. Some of the houses are big but most of them are modestly sized. 2 and three bedrooms are common. The streets are pretty and tree lined. All the houses were built by skillful craftsmen and have beautiful architectural details.

Now these houses are selling for about $895,000 for 2 bedrooms. Many liberals, who drive around with progressive bumper stickers, have moved out of their houses. Although they pay a lot of lip service to affordable housing, do you think one of these liberals has sold his house to a worthy family at a reasonable, and not obscene price? Think on this, many of these liberals bought their houses 20 years ago for about $120,000. They have payed them off. If they sold their houses for a reasonable price of say $400,000. They would still make a lot of money they did not really earn or deserve, any way. And they could help out a family.

But this will never happen. I mentioned this idea to a Liberal co-worker and she laughed and said that she did not know anyone who was not trying to get as much money out of their house as posssible. Liberals would prefer the taxpayers and the developers to eat the costs of affordable housing, while they rake in disgusting amounts of other people's money.
