    My kids will never move out. My neighbor just built a bunkie from a kit in preparation of his kid never being able to move out in this batcrap market.

    Build as much housing as you possibly can.

    Now, you may be reading that as “build a lot of housing”. But that’s not what was written.

    Build as much housing as you possibly can.

    Seriously, if you’re not considering the feasibility of putting sheds on the moving roof of the sky dome, you’re not taking this seriously enough. If you’re not considering tearing apart a million-dollar MRI machine for scrap metal for roofing, you’re not taking this seriously enough. I want you to take the NIMBYs, flay them, tan the skins, and use them to make tents for homeless people.

      It’s not an infinite number of houses.

      We just need to build 3.5 million housing units by 2030. Industry is already planning 500k, so we are only short 3 million
