Housing

This should not be the case in a country with this billionaire class. Pay should have to be a minimum of what the highest paid employee gets

We make decent money and still can't get close to a down payment, because rent climbs exactly as fast as our raises do. I've stopped believing we have a spending problem — I think we have a math problem nobody in charge wants to say out loud. Who actually benefits from keeping it this way, and what would it take to change it?

Every new building going up near us is labeled luxury, and every older one just quietly got more expensive. I'm not against anyone earning a living — I honestly just can't tell who is building the places normal people are supposed to live in. Where did the starter home go, and is anyone trying to bring it back?

Do you think corporations are the problem in the housing market? I believe there are solutions if we break out of traditional realtor deals and form contracts and create rental agreements between individual homeowners and long term renters. What do you think?
