This is not a housing crisis, there is enough houses built in California. This is an overpopulation crisis : Simply too many people searching for a house. Don't take the problem the reverse way.
- bbddg 7y agoIf there are enough houses how is it "overpopulation". It's clearly a failing of the housing market. It's not able to efficiently allocate houses to people that need them, it's designed to allocate houses only to people who can maximize profit for land owners.
- anoxor 7y agoRent control means there isn't a true housing market when only a tiny fraction of apartments are at market rate.
- baby 7y agoI live in SF and there is def. a lack of housing.
- someguydave 7y agoWho gets to decide how many people is too many?
- ravenstine 7y agoWho decides how much water can fit in a glass?
- defterGoose 7y agoWell that's a terrible analogy.
- ravenstine 7y agoCan you be a little more constructive than that? If you think it's terrible, maybe you can explain why you think it's terrible?
- someguydave 7y agoCan you explain what water is and what the glass is in your analogy?
- boyadjian 7y agoWater is people, and glass is the planet earth, with its limited natural resources.
- someguydave 7y agoThe Earth still exists and yet there are ~7 billion people on it. Is that too many?
- imtringued 7y agoMake a bigger glass...
