I'm wondering right now if all the high rent prices have caused the potentially smart politicians to leave Hawaii.  This is the dumbest idea on earth.  And building 10,000 affordable housing units is stupid too.  If u can't figure out how to manage the current amount of housing correctly, 10,000 more units isnt going to help in the long run.  It can only create more problems.  And why hasn't it occurred to them that building and building every time they have a problem is not sustainable?  That should be a no brainier.
