Land value tax would solve this: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Land_value_tax https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Land_value_tax Why? Everyone on earth is a NIMBY when they believe they won't be sufficiently compensated for the negative externalities of a new development. Everyone on earth is also a YIMBY when it comes to developments with positive expected externalities. This is not a moral problem, this is an economic incentive problem. We need to debug capitalism so that externalities both positive and negative are internalized, and everyone becomes IMBY-neutral. This just happens to have the side-effects of removing deadweight loss, rewarding builders and penalizing squatters, encouraging development and discouraging speculation.
