This doth make me wonder...

!neolibs what is your stance on YIMBYism?

It's interesting because it suggests ways to help improve housing shortcoming in ways that don't involve r-slurred regulations like strict zoning or single-family households or HOAs or rent control, since it can help utilize space more efficiently by building things up and repurposing older places like malls or parking lots or run-down industrial areas into, again, more housing and then some!

But at the same time...this can be considered either as ruthless development for the sake of helping out Big Business and their profit margins that promotes gentrification and pushes out the pre-existing (and often poor) community, or as an insidious way for certain (((individuals))) to tear down monuments and history for the sake of (((walkable cities))) where it's so dense and crowded that you are practically living in ze pod...depending on what wingcuck political views you may subscribe to.

Personally, I like it because it seems to be an actual solution, but I would understand why one would be more hesitant to permit it fully...

Building any housing reducing the price of all housing. I'm not sure what's up with this bizarre reality some people live in where for some reason supply and demand applies to everything except housing. As for the monuments and history bit, I think a lot of places (especially in Europe) are already way, way too liberal on what gets to be considered to be protected that it wouldn't be a bad thing to cut it back a bit. If Black Sabbath played at a pub once then suddenly that building is never allowed to be destroyed or even extended without extra special permission from the planning authority
