Comment on Why limit immigration?
PlzGivHugs@sh.itjust.works 2 months agoUsually because those responsible for regulating housing are heavily invested in it, and like the fact that high immigration is pushing prices up. As usual, most things lead back to corrupt governments and capitalism.

Fair point. I say “why not just build houses” as if it’s easy, but it’s really not. If I were King of America I could force simultaneous policy changes (more immigration + more housing) but that’s unlikely to happen in reality.

It is probably impossible to happen because the United States does not have a king.

Thanks for pointing that out
