i think they have misaligned incentives

because they're offsetting the bust into our generation

the whole thing of "women have to wait a few more years to retire now :("

They aren’t managing the bust properly

like idgaf, good for them, getting to retire at all

It’s been proven that a good way to get out of a busy

Bust*

Is to invest more in the economy

Grow out of the slump

well that was in 2007, so that wasnt under the tories

well, we still haven't had our bust properly yet

That’s Keynes polices

Policies

the housing market didn't fail

it didn't reset

and I would say it was a bigger problem... if they literally arent teaching kids anything

thats why we have all this bullshit like "help to buy"

once that goes boy

it's going to be fun

the market will stop having new entry

Help to buy was so dumb

Just make it harder for one person

it was to prop the market

just like everything else

To buy up the housing market

Cause that’s what’s distorting everything

make property ownership harder for internationals

like, owning homes

more than 1

Yea

or 2

And make it so you need people living in them

We have so many fucking empty homes

eh, i'm ok with someone having 1 holiday home here

that they can travel too

Yea one

But it’s extreme atm

but if someone uses the market as an investment

it's just so bad

and i'm a fucking capitalist

We have dudes who buy up a whole neighbourhood
