Proposition G on San Francisco’s November ballot aims to curb real estate speculation, which critics say is widespread and is driving up rents and home prices in the city. But opponents of the measure say that it won’t solve the housing crisis and offers no protection for seniors or families who have to sell their property because of hardship.
