What is the "abundance agenda" and how does it relate to supply-side liberalism?

In a nutshell the idea is that for too long, American governments (state/local/federal) have enacted regulations that have, inadvertently or not, driven up the prices of key goods and services by strangling supply and subsidizing demand. Abundance Liberals are against this combination. Namely, they want to stop strangling supply and allow for the markets — aided by the state where effective**** — to build mass amounts (abundance) of the goods and services we want and need, driving down prices.

The Abundant answer to this crisis is to create “abundant” housing, of all types, where it is most needed, thereby alleviating the Housing Crisis, which to Abundant Liberals is a crisis of artificial scarcity due to government policy.

Why do Democrats call any Republican "Magats", like they are subhuman?

Housing:

It’s a still nascent system created and advocated for by “Card-carrying Liberals”*** in America.

This pretty much shows abundant goals

I consider myself a Liberal of this school.

Zoning laws that make it hard to build housing (strangling supply)

Abundant Liberals reject the idea that capitalism itself is to blame for the Housing Crisis, or most other economic crises we are seeing today, instead arguing that bad policy is the root cause.

What is world history that not many people know about?

Abundant Liberals want to create mass abundance in all spheres. Energy, education, housing, food, transit, etc etc etc. They tend to be deeply urbanist and aim to have “tall cities” if you’re familiar with the term in strategy games. Lots of apartments, lots of transit and walkability, and so on.

****Abundance Liberals are not Libertarians, they are willing to make use of government support in the economy

Is it possible this person (ai rendering of actual person) has Neanderthal skeletomuscular phenotype expression? He is 5’7”, 190 lbs.

***I use the term “Card-carrying Liberal” to denote self-described Liberals who are active in expressly Liberal spaces, fighting for expressly Liberal goals, rather than as a catch-all term for “Democrat”

The battle where this is being put to the test now in in Housing.

Abundance Agenda and “Supply-Side Liberalism/Progressivism” are the same thing, but the former sounds way cooler.

I am noticing that some people are saying if Trump stayed in office that there wouldn't be any wars such as Ukraine and Russia, but when Biden came in office war started. What are your thoughts?
