MTS(@MTSlive):FAI @Allinallnotbad argues that California may have to wait for a generation of homeowners to die before it can meaningfully reform its housing laws: "The problem with zoning is you have to think about who’s actually benefiting from the rezoning. If you have a Century City situation where people want to upzone to that, fundamentally that is going to drive down the amenities of people around them." "I really don’t think with Prop 13 the way it is right now, that’s gonna happen." "I think you probably just have to wait for a lot of the people who own California homes to kick the bucket. And then you’ll have at least enough of an incentive through the tax structure to fix this." @JoinFAI
