At last, someone from the world of politics is being honest about a pervasive and harmful trade-off. When home prices rise faster than earnings, owners like me gain wealth, while non-owners lose because their incomes fall further behind housing costs.

Honesty is saying that home prices have to fall. But this is progress.

The Generation Squeeze folks have recommendations.

      What’s funny is that you don’t realize that’s what conversation is for – to learn about what you don’t know.

      If one knew absolutely everything they would have absolutely no reason to speak.

              Quite right. Which is why we have conversations - to move past that. That’s the whole reason for conversing.

              Unfortunately, that is lacking here. It is quite curious that you want to see me remain an idiot. Why is it that you are so afraid of someone rising up to be better?
