@JonGuze @LindsayJS @cigarsandlegs Both sides? Only one side of the debate wants the power to ban the other side’s preferred housing type.

@davegraney @odden56 @wozzak Regulations that ensure the safety and quality of homes is a good thing. Regulations that limit the *quantity* of homes is a bad thing.

@Anton___Illich @davegraney Funded by ads for the *sale* of each property. That's not significantly affected by the *price* of each property.

@GavinBrx @SatoshiWolf @Chris_E_Qld_Au Sounds like an advertisement for Land Value Tax. What share of land value should the land owner get when all the increase in land value was created by others?

@SydneyYIMBY Why do we need to “protect job centres” from housing? What’s the fear?

@estherzelda0514 Israel internationalises its actions by purporting to act on behalf of “Jews”, not Israelis. That implicates me - a Jew who lives on the other side of the world. When genocide occurs in my name I feel bound to say “This is wrong”.

@marielewsey @Sahar_A_Writes @carolemorrissey Right, the interviewee was impressively poised and credible despite the aggressive style of questioning.

@AvidCommentator How does our current migration rate affect housing when our population growth rate has been slowly declining since 1950? (figures from the ABS)

@purplepingers New luxury apartments lower prices for everybody via moving chains: youtube.com/watch?v=rQW4W1… A vacancy tax is a good idea. A Location Value Tax on all property owners is better though—a great way to fund a UBI.

@three3knots @peter_tulip If you don’t want to live in an apartment, don’t live in one. But some people do like them. Why forbid people building them? I don’t like suburban houses but I don’t want to forbid them.

@sam_ess604 @bryankav123 If *all* land Is upzoned, doesn’t the “expected value of future development” *fall* on the majority of land, making most land cheaper?
