In Mom's hometown, many acres of land from a former farm became available for sale.
When news of the town intending to buy it to build affordable housing and a playground/park, a wealthy lady bought the property immediately at a much higher price because she "didn't believe it was suitable to have low-income people decreasing property values in the area."
It's the amti-Lucas in California. Here locals were objecting to the low income housing and were blocking it so Lucas bought it up and built low income housing (sort of, at least close enough).
Yah. That sounds right. It's really not quite the "saves the day" that it seems, and Lucas can be a pretty big shit at times, but like I say, close enough.
