Have you ever been to a developing country? They work they way you suggest. People just run electricity and water wherever they can and throw up houses anywhere

Turns out it’s not actually an improvement though.

If you are trying to make some sort of direct comparison, your argument seems inadequate, as there are so many differences impacting economic activity.
- CamperBob2 7y agoIt's even harder to find examples where government micromanagement has made a market fairer and more accessible to all participants. The mere existence of Addis Ababa can hardly be cited to justify housing policies in San Francisco.
- aianus 7y agoNonsense, I've lived in several and it was great. $500/mo rent and much better quality of life than a similar $4000/mo place in SF.
- empath75 7y agoYeah living in the developing world is great when you’re there telecommuting and have an american or uk passport and can just leave whenever you feel like it.
