We dont need new homes, period. Ive never met anyone who wants to live in a house living on the street. You must be complaining about affordiabilty to own, well, you not born entitled to own a home. Go rent. Once ICE kicks as much of the illegals out, there may be even more rental supply than you can imagine.

If you go down to state/county level, they own quite a bit of land maintened as public land for recreational purposes (biking/hiking/kayak) depending on where you live. I live right next to very large forest/trails maintained by my county I enjoy using. The further you get from a dense city, the more common this is. I suspect 30%+ of US land is not developed on. Not sure what it means about water, but the oceans are vast and not all parts of the ocean ideal for commercial use.

This study was on normal people who probably dont move much. It was not done on athletic/fit humans. If you strength train or do high cardio workouts, the science changes. I do not know anyone who sits around all day taking protein supplements, they normally just eat junk food (not in pill/powder form).

Stablecoins backed by USD dont matter to US citizen, it would only matter to foreign citizens. There are only are finite amount of USD circulating in the world, the US does print more and more every year in T-Bills, but they are finite until the US buys T-Bills back to pay off debt. If you sit in China lets say, its hard to just walk in a FX exchange and exchange unlimited chinese yuan to USD, its highly regulated and China uses its limited (limited, but large) holdings of USD for other things (like pay for oil). There is an entire convo around FX rate manipuation when pegged to USD. How USD stable coins can circulate is unknown, but if the fritcion is lower, and in a secondary market to developing countries, someone will pay a premium on $1 USD converted to stablecoin.
