How simplistic. America has enough land. Vast swaths of it are empty. What we don't have enough of is density in the places where people actually want to be, and that's not a natural limit. You could make more density, if it weren't illegal in all of these desirable places. And I just mentioned Tokyo, which actually does have serious land constraints but does zoning and transit well. (And where they are making more land.) Ordinary people can afford homes there and almost nobody is homeless. "They're not making any more land" isn't a relevant thing about urbanism, it's just a cliche that a realtor says to convince you to buy.
