Appreciate it. Everyone says "build baby build!"; Facebook, Google, etc have deep enough pockets they'll simply fill that new housing stock with tech workers and you'll be back to where you started (outrageously expensive housing).
Well demand is a good thing in this case. It implies good economic development. My point was more that market mechanisms don't make sense for public good infrastructure/monopolies.
Building as much (and sustainably) as possible + a land tax to discourage speculation and people not actually living in housing might be a better solution.
You must destroy demand. It is the only way out.
