"[Almost any city with a real tech presence]'s Home Shortage Could Stifle Startups"

Sama's tweet from about a month ago really resonated with me: "it's so unbelievably frustrating how hard it is to get lots of new housing built in the bay area. this one thing would solve so many probs."

There are so many factors at play here, but it mostly boils down to politics.

As more entrepreneurs start tacking big problems with lots of red tape (i.e. banking, brokerage, medicine, insurance, etc.), I wish more people would look to housing and how to keep costs sane.

PS - email me if you're in the space or have ideas. Real estate entrepreneur here. Would love to hear ideas, give my opinion, or chat about possible solutions.
