Yes, proper regulation benefits everyone. You're hinting at the idea that "regulation" will turn into regulatory capture. I share that fear, but at that point we're not talking about real regulation, just political theatre.
Its not just mark. Most of lake tahoe properties stay empty most of the year. They loudly regulate any new development. Thats happening all over country, even in my middle class neighborhood. Not sure what kind of regulation in this case would benefit everyone.
That would be good for billionaires because they can be the only ones that have access to those resources. See what is happening in lake tahoe.
