The problem is certainly multifaceted, Horace. I really am sympathetic with younger people's plight, I really am. I certainly am not one of those boomers who will say to stop buying smashed avocado and all that nonsense. But pandering to social causes and not these particular economics is a distraction which will not solve anything and will only make things worse.

The economic structure as it stands is certainly not reasonably fair to each strata or each age group. This is why I long for a return to the old school, as acrimonious as it was even then.

...white picket fences and CEOs who didn't earn multi-million $ salaries and payouts for FingUBAR.

I'm not into *equanimity but do think that working people should reasonably be able to afford a house. Equally, these ridiculous salary packages at the expense of shareholders is ridiculous.

Holy **** I almost sound like a socialist... Nah, just fair recompense for value added to society.
