I was referring to education, infant mortality, feeding kids, etc. which I would point to 1) passage of Prop. 13 which destroyed the education funding base in CA, 2) lack of universal health care coverage in US and 3) welfare reform under Clinton to appeal to pt of Reagan’s base

These were all things done intentionally to shrink govt that ended up being less cost efficient for everyone and hurting really vulnerable populations.

Real estate/property markets and the state are inextricably linked. You have to have a governing system backed up by the use of force to credibly award a person or entity with a legal monopoly over a piece of land.

no it doesn't. The state only owns 2% of its forests. Almost half of the land is owned by private individuals and half of it is owned by the federal government.

I should know better than to debate someone who runs "Blockhead Factor" but markets are embedded within states/governing systems. States shape public and private incentives of individual actors and of general market behavior.

Omg. Market & govt do not exist in separate silos. Lots of people lived there *because* the rest of the state is unaffordable, *because* a generation of "free market" buyers of real estate then coalesced and used entrenched political power to zone out their communities.

what is mutually exclusive about individuals making individual decisions about risk amid climate change and the state reforming its land use, energy, fire and conservation policies at the same time?
