If you consider the city counsel a land owner cartel, I guess I can agree.
Cities where land owners can build what they want on their land does not have this problem. WHat a central government can do is ban most zoning, and make sure cities have incentives to welcome new inhabitants.
In California Prop 13 make cities lose money when people live inside them, with predictable result.
