So doesn't that mean it's a housing bubble issue? It seems like the focus on 1971 is designed to mislead people to think it's not a (very) recent phenomenon. This just seems like another "grr boomers" post which is just more division that serves to redirect anger from the ultra wealth.
Is housing the only thing mentioned in the meme? Is the fact that housing is even more obscenely expensive than it was in 2017 so that far fewer people can afford it than even could then some sort of proof that things are better now?
