Considering how crazy expensive accommodations have become the last couple of years, concentrated in the hands of greedy corporations, landlords and how little politicians seem to care about this problem, do you think we will ever experience a real estate market crash that would bring those exorbitant prices back to Earth?

    How would that work, do you think? I agree with your premise, so you don’t need to worry about that part.

        Housing and affordable housing should totally be a human right. Look at all the global inequality and how it keeps on growing, the Rich 🤑 / wealthy are accumulating and consolidating wealth 🤑 … Locking people out of opportunities 😕😔😔😐 n the governments do nothing to protect their citizens from the legal corruption… In fact they help the corporations out.

        If people who built nations and kept them running ( the workers / ETC) were compensated properly we’d all have housing, food, clean water ETC. It’s called sharing the profits / wealth. But that’s not what monopolies and people at the top 🎩 🔝 of industries do.

        I mean US still got child labor 😭 till this day.

        People that keep the countries running need to go on a strike / protest all at once for a week or two and demand some kind of equality from their government or otherwise no work no running economy!!

        It’s been done before and it can happen again if we can brave sharing food and water with each other for a week or more.
