I really hope that's the outcome here. I also think this should pave the way for real legal consequences for moronic data security. Individuals are banned from using computers when prosecuted, what about "no internet for companies who've proven they can't use it responsibly"

True capitalism provides only incentives to build, it's boomer era policy that makes this either very difficult from a bureaucratic standpoint, or unprofitable, and in most cases both. It's not right to blame someone for wanting to stay in their home, I disagree with that entirely. It's also not right to restrict and regulate supply to the extent that future generations have nowhere near the same opportunity for home ownership the previous generation took for granted.

I think that's over simplifying it, that's certainly one dimension, but the need of the article explores a different angle entirely. I think it's getting at the more complex problem of how public policy coupled with longer life expectancy has housing markets in something of a strangle hold. It's a really difficult problem.
