I’m not calling Obama a communist. And I’m pretty sure that you aren’t calling Obama a communist. But the comparison between healthcare.gov andand the Soviet space program, where this kind of decision wasn’t made, jumps out.

As comments aren’t working on Public Choice – The conclusion is incorrect. Housing policy helps existing owners, of both structures and land, not builders and realtors, and when policy doesn’t change for long periods of time, it helps or hurts no one, but becomes the ambient environment against which all decisions and pricing are made. Long standing policy has NO public choice implications beyond inducing resistance to change that would alter existing status quo. (Is public choice really that naive?)
