That's interesting, because it's not free market capitalists advocating for importing billions of people and cramming everyone into urban centers in the name of efficiency.

That's the thing with free market capitalism - nobody needs to advocate for policies like moving people to urban areas in the name of efficiency. Instead people living in rural areas are forced to migrate to cities to make a living wage, thereby causing the negative scenario you're describing. Free market capitalism allows those with capital to dominate social decisions.
