      Sadly the extra extra bonus doesn’t get collapsed on all mobile clients!

        Is it still collapsed the first time and it just uncollapses too soon along with the first button press, or does it never get collapsed at all?

        Either way it’s a fun little test that doesn’t ruin anything… this time, so I’m glad to learn about it:-D.

        Thank you for the feedback on how it looks differently to you than to me, that’s neat.

    Of course. But I would do it for the love of the game, not a paycheck.

    you are an economist. eliminating zoning laws and HOAs would make construction of houses cheaper, saving lots of people lots of money, but the construction companies would be less profitable. do you argue in favor of unnecessarily complex building codes sothat the company stays profitable at the expense of the population?

      I’ve never seen an economist argue is favor of non-safety related building codes. Ever.

      Gotta add on another level.

      Zoning laws and HOA’s give larger construction companies a significant competitive advantage over smaller companies. This limits competition and drives up the cost while also degrading the average quality of the construction as the larger companies seek to maximize profits.

      That depends. How much is the population offering me to advocate in favor of them, and how much are the construction companies offering?

    Whoever is forcing this dilemma is doing something wrong. Sue them for a fat payday… or chose violence.
