What? Please stop trying to fix problems you helped create. Utah housing is a problem because of 3 things: 1) Interest rates due to Bidenflation, which went from under 3% to over 7% in 3 years, 2) GOEO and EDCUtah policies driven by you and Herbert to attract every high-paying, white collar job you could from other blue cities and states over the last 12 years have helped drive property values along the Wasatch Front through the roof, and 3) An overreliance by you and Herbert on severely optimistic projections out of the Kem Gardner Institute the last 12 years, where the focus has been on highlighting a need for multifamily development along the Wasatch Front. Here's reality: - You and Herbert went all-in on the renter's market. We currently have a surplus of rental units with 5x more coming on line this year than being started. That's straight from NAIOP Utah 2-1/2 months ago where they said we're in an overbuilt state by 18-24 months. (see first comment below) - There's no money for developers in starter homes due to inflated land costs. - First-time home buyers can't afford mortgages due to the 250% increase in mortgage rates since 2021, and - Existing homebuyers can't or won't move because they are sitting on ~3%, 30-year fixed rate loans. We solve this problem by investing in solutions for the people who already live here, not constantly catering to those looking to move here, and certainly not low-cost loans for developers on new housing starts where first-time homebuyers aren't guaranteed the same cheap financing rates.
Governor Cox@GovCox

We know Utah has a housing shortage – so we’re focusing on market solutions that will build more homes. If we can increase the number of housing starts across the state, we can get more Utahns into single-family homes. builderonline.com/building/regul…

I am relieved that Liz Magill resigned as President of @Penn. This week, I viewed a highly restricted @IDF video of the Oct 7 Hamas massacre. I was sickened by video images I can never "unsee" and appalled by university presidents, like Liz Magill, who are OK with calls for Jewish genocide on their campuses. @MeritStMedia

This is a bit sad to listen to, and I wish the Pac-12 would survive. But, man, the Pac-12 and other P5 conferences and schools sure showed zero empathy to programs like BYU, San Diego State, Boise State, Memphis, Cincinnati, UCF, etc., when they weren't invited to the $$$ party.

Today is not only #PioneerDay, but also a holiday celebrating a pioneer in #aviation: Amelia Earhart. The aviatrix who made history as the first woman to fly across the Atlantic in 1935 made several stops in SLC throughout her career. On one of her visits, she said: “Believe me, this mountain scenery cannot be equaled anywhere in the world.” #AmeliaEarhartDay

Anywho… reading recently I came across this anecdote from a speech that JW Marriott gave at BYU as told by Jeffrey R Holland and I loved it. I love the humility. The entire theme of JW Marriott (Bill’s Father) is that of treating people well. What a great example.

@AndrewGGarrett I think we need to get rid of the General Conference speaking cadence . Bring back Brigham Young type speeches

Potentially unpopular opinion: The format for General Conference is not viable for young families (or anyone really). 10 hours of sitting and listening to talks. Should be 2 sessions, Sat night and Sun morning. Sat night should be a "World Report" format. Sun morning talks.

@planetJoseph I purchased two bikes in an only walking mission without my mission president knowing. The area was massive farm country. It allowed us to get to houses out of reach. Best baptizing month of my mission. We never got caught. Rules are just suggestions.

Drop your favorite Good Thing you did on your mission that was frowned upon or against the rules but you didn’t care. I regularly logged more than the allotted 4 hours of community service per week. Aimed for at least 10. And it never bothered me at all. #generalconference

@danmccay I respectful disagree. Im sad to see our history so easily removed and destroyed. Maybe a license plate or a tee-shirt. But flags are a unifier to me.

@stantheman87 @DJJazzyJody Stan if they gave it an official name/ position and it was some sort of lottery I bet fans would buy more tickets too.

The Jazz need to change their shoe promotion. Stop giving money or nice new shoes to rich people who already have the nicest shoes. Find people with ugly or worn-out shoes and give them an upgrade.

@DJJazzyJody The best promotion would be to surprise 1 fan from the upper bowl with a court side ticket and call them down during introductions. The area would go nuts for them.

The other day they gave someone on the front row $150 for having the nicest shoes. That person probably spent $150 on her coffee that morning. It would be fun to do that promotion in the upper bowl.
