It's not housing construction costs which go up in real terms - it's land. As Mark Twain said, they're not printing it anymore. The Physiocrats and Henry George were correct . A land value tax unlocks it - use it or lose it.

It was entertaining to watch your interview on Escaped Sapiens because it was the first time I witnessed a host confront you with their own objections (light and bird) in a non-debate discourse. You did a masterful job explaining your side: what can an opponent do when you concede that if a lot of buildings started falling down (under deregulation) that would prove you wrong.
