Bringing back a grand American institution could transform society. What’s stopping us?

Bias towards existing housing forms (apartments, single-family homes.)

Sense of entitlement that automatically generates hostility towards anything different (note how the article starts talking about resentment towards AirBNB in Colorado.)

Hotel companies are charging high rates for short stays, why mess that up by advertising cheaper rates for long stays?
