Considering how crazy expensive accommodations have become the last couple of years, concentrated in the hands of greedy corporations, landlords and how little politicians seem to care about this problem, do you think we will ever experience a real estate market crash that would bring those exorbitant prices back to Earth?

    In the early days of the pandemic I was thinking the shift to working from home would cause people to flee cities and move to smaller towns, causing major demographic and social changes.

    I was half right. People did move to smaller towns, myself included. But then we saw firsthand how awful they are and moved back to big cities because it’s worth it. I could go the rest of my life not living next to mouth breathing MAGAs.

    Not sure if we can rely on smaller towns to moderate our prices…
