    I feel like North America could fix its housing issue by simply abolishing the single family housing zones

        They could also fix it by deregulating the market.

        They could also fix it by doing basically random changes to the law, because the law currently is perpetuating the crisis.

        Fuck it. Put a pen on the jaw of a goat eating grass, and write the result into law. I think we actually have a shot at improvement this way.

        Zoning is irrelevant. Perfect zoning laws could mean 10x the houses - and the investors will buy them all up and supercharge property prices all over again.
