Why is wood so expensive?

The supply of logs from our main source of imported lumber, Canada, is super inelastic because most supply there is from public lands, and is controlled by government allowable cut constraints. These allowable cut constraints are set administratively, not economically, and thus limit their ability to increase supply in times of high demand.

Once fully enslaved, no nation, state, city, of this earth, ever afterward resumes its liberty.
