      There’s enough total housing.

      But people need to be able to live where they have a chance of being hired. And some places don’t have enough housing.

          suppose we must push harder for remote work

          But most remote work pays enough that housing isn’t an issue. Many lower paying jobs require us to be on-site, and we’re the ones that can’t afford housing.

          So I think the option is way more affordable housing, and removing the stigma around that. In my area it’s called Section 8, and of course, those options always seem to be in the more crime-ridden areas. So frustrating.
