My parents have been saying that for at least my entire life (20-something years). I'm at the point where I'll believe it when I see it. It may be pessimistic, but too many people in power are just all too happy to let people become homeless.

In my opinion, Airbnb shouldn't be a thing here right now. Multiple personal properties shouldn't be a thing here right now. Certainly not when hard-working, good people are starving on the streets. Nothing will change unless we actually change things. If we keep just waiting for magic to happen, we will be forever disappointed.

Anyone who is upset with the current housing market, please contact your officials, and please VOTE when the time comes around. We need a solution.

Today, it's a random guy down the street. Tomorrow, it may be you or your family. Inflation hurts us all eventually, especially when it just keeps going up.
