    Too bad it’s not doing the same to Residential Real Estate. Seems like every country around the world is getting absolutely fucked by old people.

      No they’re not. It’s a complex and multi-facetted answer that people don’t like hearing.

      • Immigration
      • Poor zoning
      • AirBNB
      • Speculative real estate

      Could go on and on

      It’s all poor planning coupled with abject greed and on those points we are all guilty.

      But of course everyone wants to point a finger at one simple person.
