    No what we need is more housing. It’s a supply issue. We’re short something like 2 million homes. The problem isn’t that we need to the government to come in and control the prices, we need the government to come in and make it so people can’t block higher density residential zones.

        Current estimate is at 1.2 metric fucktons of empty houses.

        I just want mixed zone complexes like in Europe. Shops on bottom, apartments on top. I don’t think it’s too much to ask.

        Bro its bad enough they got these shitty wood “luxury” apartment buildings that have like half inch thick walls, no one wants that shit on a massive scale. I’m all for more housing but fuck shared living spaces.
