MODERATORS
Sounds mostly to me like the free market working as intended. You have a single state expressing the majority of American's values, so everyone wants to live there. California's portion of the GDP reflects what the concentration of blue voters does for the economy.
Except in a true free market zoning laws wouldn't keep adorable, high density housing from being constructed to artificially boost housing prices.
Other than that I agree with you.
