The Anti-Abundance Critique on Housing Is Dead Wrong

news.ycombinator.com Derek Thompson 2025-12-28 05:28:07

The sharpest criticisms of the book Abundance have sometimes come from the antitrust movement. This group, mostly on the left, insists that the biggest problems in America typically come from monopolies and the corruption of big business. In housing, for example, Ezra Klein and I write that a key bottleneck to homebuilding in the last few decades has been legal barriers to construction, including zoning laws and minimum lot sizes. This is a mainstream view supported by economists and scholars w

Editor's take: The Trump administration attempted to curb China's ability to advance its computing capabilities through tariffs and other trade restrictions. However, this unprecedented trade war may have instead pushed Beijing to accelerate its efforts in developing powerful new AI systems.
