No but don't you see? They "have been building for decades" (in the sense that, every year, some small number of new units are built) and prices haven't fallen!

No but don't you see? They "have been building for decades" (in the sense that, every year, some small number of new units are built) and prices haven't fallen! So clearly "building more units" can't be the solution. That's just an excuse to line the pockets of developers! And besides, the "build more crowd" wants nothing but to "provide financial and regulatory incentives to developers", there is definitely no movement to remove regulations that prevent building! No, the author, who clearly has a deep understanding of this issue, has never heard of such nonsense.
