Possible, but I think it's more likely poor wording than linguistic calculus.

We don't build housing, builders do. We simply decide what is permitted to
happen. We could eliminate restrictions on construction and that would help
but the rate of housing growth would still be limited by money available to
pay for new housing, which is a lower bound to affordability. It's actually a
worse problem than it sounds for, if we're decreasing building restrictions
then we're slowing price growth and decreasing the attractiveness of housing
to investors. To accelerate affordability, we probably also need to subsidize
or at least incentivize then.

That gets to be fairly expensive so where's the money going to come from? My
proposal is a national growth tax, whose money is redistributed from areas
which don't grow to those which do. That money will be used to pay for
infrastructure improvements needed to house those people as well.

Hello. I&#x27;m doing WordPress development on the side, and usually clients provide their designs for web-pages themselves. However, new client wants me to come up with the web-page design. I&#x27;m curious, what is the go-to service these days where one can mock up a web-pages with dummy data, preferably link them together, with ability to toggle mobile version? Maybe, Figma? My goal is to show client a mockup-page where they can approve the design, and I then will focus on recreating this design in WordPress.

Don't do it loosely otherwise you may end up spending a lot of time on it. If
you are not a designer, tell the client that you can get a designer who can
work with them first. Some clients are too anal about pixel perfect design and
this client is one of those, you will spend 10s of hours just dealing with
"can you tweak this button a bit to the right" type of requests.
