We know what the problem is, and how to solve it. The people in charge just don't want it solved.
This is so weird, isn't it? I reran the model thousand times, it can't be wrong! I mean, what's supposed to be wrong? The assumptions? That's ridiculous! Let me readjust the factors once more...
The houses aren't in the right place where people need them, however. Where are there millions of unoccupied homes in California, Oregon and Washington?
Oregon alone is short something like 150,000 housing units. I can't ever recall seeing an empty house that stayed vacant for very long.
