Allow me to represent the predictable tech-bro YIMBY perspective: we don’t build enough housing. Supply has lagged behind demand for decades. And still basically everybody opposes new housing near them.
If “we don’t know the solutions” means “we don’t know what is causing this,” then I think that’s wrong. We definitely know. But if it means “we don’t know how to change course,” then that’s clearly right. It’s a disaster.
