B) You can still get cheaper housing if you don’t live in the whitest, red-lined-ass, suburban enclaves in your state
C) Even then, it doesn’t matter, because landlords primarily benefit from very low borrowing costs rather than low housing costs. A $300k house was still functionally unaffordable to anyone earning $45k/year, unless your credit score got you one of those sweet sub-3% ZIRP era loans. Renting was effectively paying a vig to a guy with a better interest rate than you.
D) ZIRP also flooded the market with the excess cash that made $300k basic bitch housing possible. And then turned those $300k homes into $600k homes 15 years later.
E) Build Public Housing
F) And municipal mass transit, so you don’t have to sit in traffic for a hour every day
Just pass a law taxing the shit out of single family homes used for income and a bigger tax on empty houses. Use the revenue to help people who go upside down on their mortgages due their primary residence due to the crash in housing prices.

A simple reform in theory, but incredibly difficult to pass through a legislature that’s stuffed to the brim with real estate lobbyists and their clients.

I hope so. The dissonance and lack of self-awareness in the post was so profound, my head is still ringing.
I saw quite a few Chase Passive Income posts and all of them feel like satire
