At risk of being labeled a "neoliberal idealist," why isn't the answer here simply taxing tourists more?
Pigovian taxes have been a thing for fifty years, yet they are still seldom used. It seems like such an obvious solution to me that the fact it's not used more often (ex: towns banning airbnb vs taxing it) suggests to me that I'm missing something obvious.
