(57,936 posts)Most Democrats and Democratic groups lack good places to meet.
In LA, you have to pay a lot of money to rent a room -- just a room.
That fact prohibits groups of any size from being able to meet on a regular basis and talk and discuss and organize.
Occupy solved the problem by using public spaces, but were kicked out.
Most Democrats don't have kinds of homes -- in terms of size and appearance -- in which they can entertain a lot of people.
And the Democrats who do have those kinds of houses are most likely fairly conservative. So what to do?
It is essentially a "housing" problem.
I'd be lucky to cram 15 people into my house. But then many of the houses in LA, the older houses, are very small. The big ones have been divided into apartments.
