What would you replace it with? I'm in a condo and while the HOA has been a pain in the ass, I don't see who else is going to get shit done in a communal way. I guess you could say that condo's shouldn't exist, but this is the only way I could afford to live in the neighborhood that I do. We could keep going down the rabbit hole of affordable housing... but it seems like we should stick to a bit of reality here.
