    This is a reactionary take. Its true that gentrification is bad, for the reasons you've stated. But the solution isn't for individuals to boycott it and not move to mixed neighborhoods that otherwise would save money and be better fit for them.

    And blaming them for not paying enough taxes is just silly. The underpaid taxes that are causing strains in our system are not the 20-somethings with gigs here and there. You know who it is.

      The solution to a bad thing is not to stop doing the bad thing. Definitely not a reactionary take.
