>Maybe build more?

Not up to me. I'm not a politician. And like you said, property owners hate it and they are majority.

But it's just as easy to oppose gentrification from wealthy Americans without equal terms in exchange. It has the same effect on supply/demand.

Otherwise, I'll be forced to vote for the most radical and vindictive politicians out of spite to see the world burn if I see my government prioritizes wealthy foreigners and throws me under the bus.

Every action has an equal and opposite reaction.
