Every single fucking solution they put forward has had the same effect. If it's meant to help the buyers, it's still going to help the wealthiests who are going to price everyone else out of the market, and help them save money while doing it. Meanwhile the rest of us keep getting fucked.

Until there are tangible limits on who can own residential property and how much of it, the working class will always suffer. We also need wages that match the cost of living for the working class.

Well yeah, they can't actually get away with doing anything that impacts the wealthy or upper middle classes. The poor and working classes are the weakest and easiest to abuse and exploit, so we get abused and exploited. Maybe if we actually grouped up for once without getting emotionally baited apart, we'd have some clout and not be so easy to abuse and exploit. But that's socialism!
