That reasoning has never worked in the history of the world. Might makes right, whether it be denominated in currency or violence.
They literally dredge these developments out of the swamp. It’s new land they are moving to that wasn’t in play before.
I don't buy this line. I myself cannot buy a house where I grew up due to people with money moving in, but that doesn't mean that I should be able to say "we're full" simply so I can buy a house.
