Wholly agree. Basic necessities Food, Water, Shelter, HealthCare etc should not be left to the whims of the free market. It isn't even hard to fix in the US where land is still plenty but artificially controlled by regulations as opposed to heavily population density places like Japan.

It's interesting that you decry the free market, but explicitly agree that regulations (market distortions) are what's preventing abundant housing.
