I suggest Joseph Heller’s A catch 22. If u have not read, pick up & read it .
Quote from. above “And if there's no place to discharge people, there's no place to discharge people. If there's no housing, there's no housing." It’s a intercept where — damned if you do & damned if you don’t where 20th mid Century Irony crashes at a crossroad — yet the crash keeps circling around & around until the boom a-rang affect takes hold . Everything ends up where it crashed.
R the EDD employed numbers taking into account all the jobs now performed by algorithms & Ai? I think not. I suggest going into a B of A on Sat am. You’ll see the line out the door of elderly, disabled, all Spanish speakers attempt personal banking.
The social value of shelter 4 humankind has become blinded by greed & run a-mum capitalism. War makes money as does real estate. Throw in AI, a few tippy top tier computer engineers & stock holders w next 2 zero government oversight. many wayward humans displaced by a wage canyon, fires, robotic replicants, climate change, Pandemic, a California disaster! All the heat pump heaters & an all electric vehicle, recycling household garbage, & dog poop pick ups will not turn the tide of misfortune 4 the displaced:
1) limit over bids on property purchases
2) free social worker education / certification
3) raise taxes
4) incentivize inclusionary homes
5) UBI 4 every human a robot has replaced, three fold
6) Enforce housing as a human right from cities on up
7) make corporations, churning out AI supplement the displacement of humans, pay up. Meaning: for every robot in place of human labor pay for the loss of such human labor 2 three humans suffering under such loss.
Musk says a 6 month pause on AI development and implementation? I say a halt 2 figure out the exponential rate such AI is displacing the labor market & thus, humans from our work force market. And to end: the AI algorithm here can’t interrupt the American English language. Catch 22

I keep harking the Frank Zappa quote — paraphrased here. A nuclear war will never happen. There is too much real estate involved! Yet Mr. Zappa above, the Nuclear Family has truly diffused its economic atom bomb. Now what?
It appears the only way out of the mushroom shroud, is eminent domain. Like the massive freeways Eisenhower Admin did in the Mid 20th Century the the Feds step in, to take property and designate such for Permanete quality, climate friendly supportive service based housing for all.
