Elevators must be built by documented workers here due to regulations. Every high-income country, they use lower-cost immigrant labor for apartment construction, but in the United States, you can't really do that because of immigration policies and regulations. American exceptionalism in construction. It's made elevators economically unviable.

Well, Jack, can we at least pause the elevator and press all the buttons for a moment? Looks like a Christmas tree. It does look like a Christmas tree. So Jack, what's the takeaway for all our buddies who are anyone riding an elevator? We have too many houses, not enough apartments, and elevators show why. Yetis, every year, our population grows faster than the number of new houses being built.

Yep, the regulatory problems that make elevators crazy expensive also make apartment buildings crazy expensive. But single family homes, which only hold one family, not a bunch of families, single family homes have much less red tape and no elevator to go along with them. So what can we do about it?
