That's why I'm mostly talking about free market elements here, because that's the audience that needs convincing.

It's also a simple let me not compete for your suburban house and let me buy a row house in the fan for a more affordable price.

Land value tax is better economically. The 30 year mortgage was invented by the FDR administration. Zoning is not the free market etc.
