Sounds like the logical thing to do is start desiring a different place with sounder housing/zoning policy. Voting with your feet is a thing when you can’t win

- coryrc 5y agoI think this is another large flaw in our voting system, where things are too local (like zoning). You get a small community of rich people in Berkeley block any new housing, and you want to live there but have no influence on the zoning laws. Japan's zoning is national and doesn't have this problem. Thus Tokyo is far more affordable than San Francisco, Mountain View, etc.
