    Because what would happen is you’d end up with all the land used up with giant apartment complexes and massive overpopulation. You think owners off the land and the developers aren’t going to squeeze as much rent out of every bit of open space as possible?

    This meme shows the end game of suburbs and compres it to just the beginning of a crowded city.

      Yes after the 200 homes are built, we’d built more homes that aren’t needed, which would somehow take up more space than if we did the same with houses, as has been illustrated. Maybe we need a system where we don’t build needless homes in addition to good urban planning.

      Nah your idea of just continuing to fuck shit up is probably better.
