Ben Shapiro speaking at Cal

The flaw in Waco's argument is he is blaming liberals for the high cost of living in Cali. It's a specious argument.

Dude it's not a flaw it's a fact. How many more articles can i post here regarding our zoning, land use and environmental laws that cause our housing prices, and thus cost of living, to be so high?

ive posted numerous times too about the difference in housing between Texas and California on this front and why there is such a big difference in costs.

Again a direct result of policy decisions

Well Wacko likes to cherry pick his data to support his argument. There are a many reasons why Cali has a high cost of living the primary one being the desirability of coastal locations, the congestion in the coastal locations, limited land constraints for new housing , the lack of economic incentives for local governments to approve housing, the resistance of communities to additional housing construction due to population growth affecting the nature of why the coastal areas are desirable.

The flaw in Wackos argument is to blame progressive liberals for the situation where these market conditions would still exist regardless of which political party controlled State and local government. It's partisan nonsense.

So you think these zoning and land use laws would exist regardless of who was in charge?

I'll give you a spoiler alert: thats not the case. These are the policies you support and vote for and this is the result

How ironic. You failed to mention corrupt, inefficient governments, lazy govco workers with Cadillac pension plans, and fat payouts to non-workers. I wonder why?

This is wild, rana agrees with this as well. Do y'all think these land use, zoning and environmental laws that restrict development and drive up the cost of housing were just magically created?

You guys point to California and say look at the great results and this is why we should have liberal economic policies but when it comes to this now all of a sudden liberal policies played no role and I'm being a hack?
 
Zoning laws do not cause poverty and high cost of housing...it's ridiculous and doesn't even warrant a serious response.

Its caused by decades of right wing racist policies that support capitalism and white supremacy, policies that cawacky supports.

CA hasn't always been controlled by dems.

Ben Shapiro, a right-wing racist motherfucker from the alt-right garbage dump who conservatives like you think should be heard.

If they had to pay 600K for him to speak .. THAT'S A GOOD THING. They should have to pay even more for allowing him to speak.

Maybe think about that next time shit like that asks to speak.

If you love taxes so much, please pay more of them. At least 90% should demonstrate that you aren't a lying hypothetical NIMBY.

Yes i do. I think objectively that same or very similar market conditions would exist for the reasons I pointed out mainly because those conditions exist independently of the politics and policy. Now you may have an argument of liberals being hypocritical, which is specious, but the same conditions would largely exist.

Is Warren Buffett a hypocrite for advocating that higher taxes be imposed on himself but not paying them without the legal obligation? As he noted, he pays at a lower rate than his secretary.

Please explain how land use laws, zoning, and environmental laws exist outside of politics and policy.
