No, you simply have to allow people to develop their own property.

Lots of people do this (see Taiwan, Japan). Even in San Francisco there are tall buildings. There's no shortage of demand.

If we are assuming omniscient tyrants we can probably simplify the system a bit.

Incorrect, the bay area has been losing population since the pandemic, albeit at a slowing pace.

And the population becoming insanely wealthy like the Bay Area has because of tech and wealthy people moving in from all over the world can shift the demand curve to the right even if the population stays the same.

Okay but prices have been marching up in the face of declining population, so clearly people moving in from all over the world is not a factor. Perhaps you wish to bite the bullet and say that it's bad that people are getting rich in the bay area because they have higher willingness to pay?

This is Korea, so the answer is probably "work overtime".

Christ, what a bleak pic on Wikipedia. A six lane arterial, two parking lots, and the world's saddest park. I can understand why existing cities become ugly. Why do people do this when designing new cities?

Didn't we establish that California is losing population? Have a look at housing price growth over the same period.

Who said anything about major?

This is doubly so if the Tyrants form a pact saying they'll vote in favour of the policies of any of their fellow tyrants who was killed for politically motivated reasons (which they have an incentive to form as none of them wants to be assassinated).

Simply kill the tyrants you agree with.

Shall we bet?
