Okay, what's your alternative supply chain design that will make more wood available, without ruining forests? It's not like the prices are actually stopping the wood cut down from being used.

If you drop the prices of wood right now, they just sell out of wood and somebody at random can't get it.

My guy, you're commenting after someone has already offered another source.

Where? All I see is something about ease of doing business in Denmark.

OP is just about relative house supply in Anglophone vs. non-Anglophone OECD countries, which has nothing to do with building supplies, since that varies tremendously just within the Anglosphere (tree-rich Canada vs bare Britain), or capitalism, because nobody's arguing Japan or Italy is a socialist paradise.
