    I never said supply wasn’t an issue. I said people are out here acting like they are owed luxury and that has never been true nor will it ever be. We all know zoning laws and supply restrictions for profit are what got us here. Do you think any of the lobbyists receiving money from these corps are gonna let it go? No.

    Edit: and econ101 doesnt matter when the supply is kept artificially low through corporate welfare, consolidation, and lobbying.

      Ah, OK. But then “there’s more empty houses than homeless people” argument doesn’t make sense.

      WDYM it doesn’t? It works as expected.
