I just want to add -- this is the problem with Race getting in the way of conversations about class. Why don't we just talk about how to help all people get their first house in a way that is fair to everyone? Instead -- got to talk about whites getting the edge on tax cuts. They are always going to get the edge on tax cuts -- "whites" (which I claim is getting to be more cultural than ethnic with my generation) will almost certainly always have more money because they started with more. Therefore, they get disproportionate benefit with any kind of tax break.
We can't let stupid talking point factoids get in the way of pushing for the one issue we ALL care about: Economic Inequality.

Zoning laws in blue cities and states raise the price of housing. See: san Francisco
Conversely, having no zoning creates dystopian nightmares like Houston's piss poor infrastructure
Give and take buddy, there's not really a solution to these complex problems
