For starters, outlaw real estate speculation, at least the out of control kind.

Impossible to define, and so impossible to outlaw, stupid.

It's very simple:

We'll see...

hold the speculators criminally liable for their actions
if they drive up housing prices to insane levels

Impossible to define, or to prove, stupid.

Impossible to prove beyond reasonable doubt that a criminal conviction
requires that it was speculators the tanked the market, stupid.

Let alone one particular speculator, stupid.
