Yes. Bad feel-good policies are the vast majority of the problem

Thank you for expounding. I can only assume we're talking about empathy from the real estate lobbyists who control housing policy.

I promise you, its not the "real estate lobbyists" who fought to block subsidized housing for teachers in the Sunset.

The state controls housing policy.

Everyone is so informative here. Thank you.

To be direct, construction would look much more like Austin, which has lowered rents by actually builds things, if your vision of the case were true.

To act like housing policy is controlled by developers, even in this contemptuous jest you exude, is delirious and is the remainder of the problem with San Francisco.

I misinterpreted you as implying a libertarian anti-state argument. I had thought I was returning the same energy.

My apologies.

I was the person you replied to, and there was no "energy", whatever that is, in what I said. Just: you blame the state for state corruption, because we pay them taxes to not be corrupt.
