I think it's healthy to point out that we have an affordability problem (not the first time that has happened here, BTW). I think Dan's ideas are creative and have considerable merit. The issues are: (1) there is no magic bullet that would fix the problem (without subsidy); and (2) people who live in many of those areas don't want higher densities and they sure don't want lower housing prices in their neighborhood that benefit others at their expense.

You millenials have an PR issue in asking that the current system be changed for your benefit. One suspects that when you hit your next stage in life, you'll be on the front lines of the opposition to the next generation's demands for change.
