\nTo trace the history of the twenty-first century so far is to trace a history of unaffordability and shortage. After years of refusing to build sufficient housing, America has a national housing crisis. After years of limiting immigration, we don\u2019t have enough workers. Despite decades of being warned about the consequences of climate change, we haven\u2019t built anything close to the clean-energy infrastructure we need. Ambitious public projects are finished late and over budget\u2014if they are ever finished at all. The crisis that\u2019s clicking into focus now has been building for decades\u2014because we haven\u2019t been building enough.<\/span><\/p>\n

Abundance <\/span>explains that our problems today are not the results of yesteryear\u2019s villains. Rather, one generation\u2019s solutions have become the next gener\u00adation\u2019s problems. Rules and regulations designed to solve the problems of the 1970s often prevent urban-density and green-energy projects that would help solve the problems of the 2020s. Laws meant to ensure that government considers the consequences of its actions have made it too difficult for government to act consequentially. In the last few decades, our capacity to see problems has sharpened while our ability to solve them has diminished.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
