    Never mnid thats fair enough then, idk much about “the economy” other than its function according to the POSIWID* maxim, its a bit weird that we need to build way more houses than physically necessary otherwise people will die on the streets.

    but local petite bourg real estate owners want to restrict supply…

    However, there seem to be other more video game based solutions to the problem…

      The issue is the areas people are moving to don’t have enough supply generally. Yeah there’s a lot of vacant homes but a lot of them are in like, Bumfuck Nebraska. Thing is there actually is a lot of affordable housing in the US, it’s just far away from all the job and infrastructure, that’s why a culture of “super commuters” who drive like two hours to an office in LA to work exists now, and why during the pandemic a bunch of workers who went remote decided to go buy houses in West Virginia and Idaho.

        no shinkansen from mcmansion suburb concentration in inhospitable desert to actual workplaces

        well, theres your problem

        lmao so technically the problemo is because american urban planners (best in world) built all the houses over 9000km miles from where the economy functions, fucking genius. Therefore, it is an issue of building more homes… but closer to urban centers. Where I live, there is a lot of property development (suburbification) going on… but its in the areas 2+ hours from the city center. We truly are america’s 51st state.
