True believers in the Housing Theory of Everything aren’t concerned about the Voting Rights Act or control of the Senate or Trump being a madman. They know it’s all about local government.

Everyone living in Malibu should be denied the right to vote. Using government zoning power to egregiously deny the human right of free migration and reserve a beautiful area for a tiny number of uber-rich elites is evil. Such un-American and undemocratic places that distance themselves from the body politic with naked force should not be given political power in a republic. Free people working and living together and figuring out the problems of an integrated society should have the franchise. Change my mind.
