"Minister for Economic Growth Nicola Willis wants to axe one third of 71 rules which include paying the Living Wage in contracts for cleaning, catering and security guard services."

1️⃣3️⃣ The Artificial Scarcity of Housing is Slowing Growth

🔥 Housing isn’t expensive because of natural scarcity — it’s expensive because restrictive policies limit construction.

✅ Unrestricting construction (with only essential safety rules) could boost U.S. GDP growth by 0.4% to 0.8% annually, adding trillions in economic output over time.

💡 Abundant housing fuels mobility, affordability, and productivity.

6️⃣ Housing Is Fungible — Abundance Ends the Crisis

🔥 Housing isn’t inherently expensive — restrictive policies make it so.

✅ Expanding housing supply ensures affordability. Tokyo’s flexible housing policies keep prices stable despite its size.

San Francisco’s bar is red, reaching $1 million, representing the effect of strict zoning and limited housing supply. Tokyo’s bar is green, reaching $280K, showing the impact of flexible zoning and increased housing supply. The graph highlights the stark difference in housing affordability between the two cities due to their respective housing policies.
