I've been thinking a lot about the immigration vs. housing debate and more and more it feels like our generations version of the immigration boogieman taking our jobs. We undeniably need reform to our housing market (maybe through an increase in medium density housing?) but I feel as though I've been seeing increasing push-back on the immigration policy, and while it's a very aggressive policy, it's feeling more and more like a smoke and mirrors game to keep us from demanding the changes we need from our government. But if I put on my cynical tinfoil hat, it's much easier to win an election with "immigrants bad" than with well planned housing reform.

It's refreshing to see an article that highlights why this immigration policy might be in place beyond the usual band-aid arguments about the economy I'm used to seeing
