    There is no reality where we can build fast enough to actually lower demand enough that prices lower. At least not in southern California, where I live.

    There is no reality where banning corporations from buying houses lowers prices either. Prices are going up in the medium term no matter what. All the more reason we have to actually solve the actual problem.

        Sure, but I am saying that the banning policy hurts poorer people to help richer people so I wouldn’t do that.

        I’m saying to build more because it accomplishes the goal people say they are trying to achieve but aren’t.
