Chesterson’s Fence comes to mind. If you think you have an obvious solution, you’re almost surely missing something.

Killing people obviously has repercussions. Building more housing obviously has more complexities. Zoning is hard. Forcibly taking land is complicated. Building the other amenities (transportation, parking, etc.) is hard. Taxing billionaires is complicated. They fund other things, can put financial pressure in other places, etc. California’s exodus of the rich is a real problem. etc.

I think the real question of value here is “what am I missing such that I think obvious solution X solves the problem?”
