Then why are you melting about this relatively reasonable policy to increase supply of housing in Idaho?

Since we're disassociating California and people from this increase in housing that is

No matter what type of home they put on a 30'x50' lot...there is no room between you and the neighbors...no privacy outdoors nor much indoors. To look out the window and just see another wall or window that close?
Modern nice neighborhoods are often only on 5 foot setbacks, so it's 10 feet max from your neighbor's house.

Yeah, this thread is very stupid. Self-styled "free market" types utterly hating the free market.

While still complaining about "affordability".

Because it’s a farce “to increase housing supply”

Why the frick would anyone want an ADU built next to them.

I covered this in my first post

Isn't this describing NIMBY-ism, which is making housing more unfordable by making development less possible and more costly?


You're now taking the NIMBY stance

Do you want ADUs in your back yard

Answer the question.

Also I gladly take the NIMBY stance, which is a stupid fricking acronym you keep using. Just say it.

I will take the stance of protecting my home value and my neighbors home value without shoving ADUs on the homeowners.

I understand the NIMBY position

I also understand this is why there is a housing shortage and government-created inflation in home prices. This statement isn't exclusive to Utah

Yes, good. This is preferable for many.

Where are all the illegals in this country living? In the millions. Many millions. Where do they reside, adobe huts in the desert? I would guess they take up a LOT of homes that lower income AMERICAN citizens could and would purchase if given the opportunity. There is no “housing shortage” There is an illegal alien surplus

Except those on the unfavorable side of governmental market manipulation facing the housing shortage that manipulation creates.

Bookmarked

But how do you feel about ADUs being in your backyard?

Also, if you truly believed this then you are saying you do not support this passage of legislation?

This is the correct observation. The housing crisis and prices would not be an issue if this country would have had a stronger immigration policy for the past 50 years.

Unfortunately, our government and corporations sold the American people out for cheap labor.

This is a self inflicted injury and can't be undone by new legislation.

If only this country had a strict immigration policy like Denmark.
