Also google

“Shrinking middle class” “Income to buy a house” “Investors buying single family houses” Etc.

The historical middle class cant afford to buy houses anymore because the investor class drove up the prices with speculation.

The first part is true but the second part is not. It’s because liberals want to find a capitalist enemy so they don’t have to take responsibility. The cause is by and large boomers, including liberal ones, opposing the building of new housing in places with jobs. When boomer kids (the biggest generation ever) entered the job market, demand doubled but supply hadnt grown

I dunno about those labels but I thought liberals support capitalism.

The speculation factor is huge. Boomers are also a problem
