it's merely coincidence that it's spelled misery unlike mystery. i'm french. can you give me a quote from the 90s that affirms your opinion?   it is indeed easy to provide housing for everyone who does unskilled labor. we did it previously without even noticing it. now the technology is better and suddenly you want to pretend it's no longer possible. it's mostly just an issue of immigration shooting the price of land upwards. but this could be easily mitigated by simply allowing the middle class to leave the city by adding a 15% employer tax for any employee which requires their employee to attend their job in person. this would move the people out of the city, lower the price of the housing and spread people further out allowing a decrease in price of land. as for build the house, everyone could purchase a 100 000$ barnamonium.
