Housing shortage, at least in the US, isn’t really a problem of capital availability. It’s mostly due to local zoning regulations that make it very difficult to actually create housing, regardless of capital availability.

Hmm, I don't feel like that's what the original comment was getting at since it was talking about taxation.
