Costa Mesa Homeowners Put Wrong Values First

The City Council in Costa Mesa are mulling the idea of allowing low-income housing for homeless folks to be built in the area.

As many as fifty people could be helped by the proposed facility - until now, Costa Mesa has had nothing like it.

And the response from local homeowners?...

'It could pose a safety risk and hurt home values, they said.'

These self-absorbed fiscal myopics wouldn't last two weeks on the streets. But they're happy to let everyone else stay marooned on the curb, as long as it means their own homes don't lose value.
