So having just read Mr. Fox’s post in depth, he seems to simultaneousely complain about the lack of affordable housing and McGinn’s support/endorsement/participation in the creation of 17000 new housing units at the expense of 6500 existing units.

I don’t buy that McGinn is directly responsible for the creation/destruction of those housing units, but if he were, wouldn’t supply and demand dictate that as a result of the changes, cost of housing is actually going down? Help me understand the argument Mr. Fox is making.
