      Tokyo could drown in tech dollars but teachers would continue living in cheap housing because Tokyo builds housing. If you stop building housing, you’re deciding someone doesn’t get to live there; market just tells you their names.https://twitter.com/nytimes/status/1081313099032989697 …

      An uncommon arrangement for teachers in economic boom towns — employers acting as landlords — is starting to catch on as school employees say they cannot afford to live comfortably in regions awash in tech dollars https://nyti.ms/2CRAVlx

          We having baying hordes who advocate for and get scarcity and then wonder why we have no abundance. Truly it is a mystery.

          I can’t imagine people in other developed countries writing in to object that way.

          I say all the teachers leave. Let them see the result of this kind of crap. You don't want to house teachers because they literally can't afford to live in your area? You don't need teachers then.

          Let these parents feel it when their children are stuck in low-income housing because they don't have an education.
