here in CA, All you have to do release the tens of thousand of square miles of undeveloped land (95% of CA is still undeveloped) and build houses and roads on it. That would generate a huge number of jobs. Since housing prices are through the roof, I bet the economy could support an enormous construction increase. And, even much more if building regulations were removed to allow for really low cost housing. Kill 2 birds with 1 stone: solve the housing problem and massively increase blue collar jobs.
- grzm 10y agoA couple of questions come to mind: how much of the undeveloped land is conducive to development (e.g., too mountainous)? Having green space, undeveloped land also has value. What are the long-term trade offs of removing the green space?
