Good thing you aren't making policy.

If your policy change is going to harm the less fortunate then you should re-evaluate the policy.

A land value tax just shifts those who can't afford it out of their homes and hands more land over to the wealthy.

Land isn't the problem with housing. The problem is that developers have figured out it's more profitable to build fewer expensive properties than a large number of affordable ones. Not only do they have to do less work, but it keeps the market artificially low and so lets them charge more for what inventory they do have.

So they do just that.

And the residential development market has such a huge investment level to enter you won't see many willing to roll the dice on mass producing affordable housing.

Show me a home builder who has plans which are less than 3k sqft these days. You won't find one.

No way. That would fuck over way too many people who are just trying to live out their lives in the home they've built/purchased/inherited.

Violence is the last refuge of the incompetent

I can't think of a better way to explain the difference between the books and the show then that quote.

Can you imagine Salvor of the show ever saying that?

Further erode relations between Israel and other ME countries.

Turn international political option against Israel.

The only path to any kind of resolution in which Gaza gets sovereignty is if Israel is forced to the table by the international community.

To do that, Hamas has to get Israel to kill as many Gaza citizens as they can

What media is an LLM going to be able to reproduce that I can't already reproduce with a copy paste?

That critical mass will never come because people don't feel the data has been stolen from them.

Rather, it's traded in exchange for whatever online services they use.

And to them it's a decent trade.
