> provide enormous numbers of people with homes Citation needed. California is probably the most NIMBY state in America, they don't build housing anywhere except in exurbs closer and closer to places of high wildfire risk. I don't think California's success is because of the government. It's largely because of momentum, and because of other intangibles like good weather year-round.
