But people would rather be divisive. It easier to blame a neighbor than a billionaire you can't put a face to. It's how capitalism works.

Poor people love to blame the upper middle class and lower upper class, when it's really the billionaire investor class that is doing this shit.

40 years ago dentists from Boston were also buying summer homes in Vermont but they could typically afford one per family. The billionaire investor class buys homes to speculate in the hundreds/thousands.
