- roenxi 3y agoYeah of course it works. It is possible that literally everyone knows that approach works. How to build buildings things cheaply is not a mystery to the building builders. The issues is that the people making the decisions either don't want it to be cheap, or aren't allowed to make the cheap decisions. I'm betting option 2.

- roenxi 3y agoThe activists of various stripes, locals, courts and regulators. occasionally bad incentives or requirements by whoever contracts out the work if it is sponsored by a public body.
