Now will this force these megafunds to liquidate and mark to market the vast properties they already own flooding the market and brining prices down? Of course not. The only thing that fixes the "affordability" problem is reducing prices to align with incomes, or increasing incomes to align with prices. All of these interventions do nothing to address the actual problem, credit creation that caused prices to get so high in the first place. This is a monetary issue not a housing issue, it's not just houses that are unaffordable it's everything. Preventing Blackrock from buying any more single family homes is a good start, but won't move the needle even a millimeter for the swaths of young people priced out forever. And before someone swoops in to say the plan is we're going to "grow our way out of this"..... no.

Inflation has nothing to do with the "economy" or the "market". It's directly caused by conjuring infinite credit and currency from nothing.
In a global market, Increasing productivity does ZERO to help affordability, since excess is just sold to other countries. How insane is growing our own food and pumping our own oil, instead of increasing supply domestically (and reducing prices) it's sold into the global market keeping prices inflated. This fantasy of growing our way out of this is just that, a fantasy. Until the unit of account is soundly based and credit\fiat restrained and reset, things get more expensive v.s. your income to infinity, because that too is globally priced (your labor.) "Growing our way out of this" means "inflating our way out of this", which is another hilarious saying, there is no inflating your way out of this. It's mathematically impossible. But if people "believe" (faith) that the system is fine, then it just keeps going, and why they jawbone these ridiculous ideas because people still believe this crap.

The entire covid fiasco was an intentional, premeditated operation, from it's creation, and release, to the "cures" they already had patented and ready to deploy en masse. This whole idea the government messed up and oopsie we didn't pay attention to safety is so far off the mark I don't even know what to say here.

As posted above, schools take the majority of property taxes. Audit them all and pay off those neverending fraudulent bonds. But muh roads!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Do you know the actual cost of roads and fixing potholes and paying that volunteer firefighter? It's like 10 bucks per person. Exempt households without children from funding schools. You want to have kids, you pay to "educate" them.

What really needs to stop is this idea currency is money and conflating the two.
