      They always were, it’s just corporate landlords stood a lot to lose from them losing prominence so kept them artificially in demand. Went so far to lobby that corporations need to have an office by law, even if their structure doesn’t necessitate one.

    Fuck yes. As a libertarian it bothers me that I can’t make my home in any space I can own.

    I understand not building rendering plants next to houses. Some zoning is okay. But there is zero reason why I shouldn’t be able to run a 7-Eleven and sleep on a cot in the back if I so choose.

    mixed offices and apartments in the same building sounds good… would cut the commute

      I hope the entire industry kicks it and every high-ego low talent pedo relator involved in it will have to live on the street (the irony)

    Watching the Biden admin is wild. At one minute he’ll be escalating the wars in the Ukraine and Palestine, but the next he’ll be funding the NLRB and addressing the housing crisis in a way that improves walk-ability.

    It’s like, he has two settings: “actually useful moderate” and “KILLKILLKILLKILL”

    Unfortunately, this makes him the best US president since carter

    Biden wants to give money to wealthy landlords so they can build luxury apartments using our tax dollars, so they can rent them out and increase their wealth.

      Anyone saying “We need to build more houses” rather than saying “We need to fill the existing houses” has no interest in solving the problem.

    Shut the fuck up, Genocidin’ Biden. How about you stop killing kids in the middle east and start taking care of your own citizens for once.

      What the actual fuck are you babbling about? Biden went there to tell israel to not do an invasion.

      Take care of his own citizens… isnt that exactly what this article is about? Converting office space to residential space?

      Take your pills, grandpa.

          Republicans and the corporations that they constantly prop up, thats who, motherfucker.

          Republicans LOVE war and genocide.

          Next time you think you have something smart to say, shut the fuck up and sit the fuck down, bitch.
