The government's job is not to enable people to live where they want to live

Well that's some selective editing. It's hardly fair quoting the guy while cutting out the rest of the sentence that says "as if things like environmental issues, transit, social, and health issues shouldn't matter." You've removed the bit about individual decisions having a collective effect on everyone that therefore gives government a mandate to regulate! If you want to argue against that by all means proceed since a case can be made, but it's not fair to divorce the social bit from the argument over government's role in society.
