Increasing housing supply is like building more roads to reduce traffic: it doesn’t work. Humans reproduce to fill all available habitat. More humans, no tangible benefit, worse Earth.

I'm pretty sure most people don't decide to have another kid because there's an apartment vacancy in San Francisco.

'increasing housing supply' is code for 'colluding with the state of california to increase their tax monies and property taxes because they havent been able to do their jobs and manage state pension liabilities'.

Well, voters capped their ability to make money on property tax, so is that the state's fault? (Also it has a budget surplus?)
