California, from every source I've seen, has a major, systemic, generations long market failure.

Failure, yes. Market, no. Local governments will point guns at you if you try to build more housing.

There are about 4,000 added units within a mile radius of me (Santa Clara / Sunnyvale border) in an 18 month span (would have been a year without Covid)... nearly 3,000 adjacent to Lawrence Expressway alone.

You don't have a clue what you're talking about.
