At what cost? At what cost are we piling on additional building requirements every year? Can you explain your analogy? What does "bigger engine" mean for housing markets? Increasing the horsepower (cost) of housing units to make developments viable despite the safeties (regulations and fees) holding it back? Good analogy, but aren't we trying to reduce the size of the engine here?

Clearly I missed the mark when asking if you support single staircase egress. I was under the impression you weren't afraid of a deregulation proven in every jurisdiction in the world besides most of the US and Canada, but I guess that wasn't the case.

It's so funny that you grasp for asbestos bans and locked entrances as if those change building costs at all. I think you'll find that vermiculite is around 10x more expensive than rock wool... And windowless bedrooms are still legal, they're just not allowed to call them bedrooms anymore. They're "dens". Hell, I've noticed some listings call them "Jr. bedrooms" now.

My mistake for responding to a conspiracy theorist. Interesting how you conflate temporary foreign workers with immigrants, they're all the same to you I assume?
