Twice as FUCKING big, MOTHERFUCKERS!

... on every device. Swap in lower ranked stuff, so the top 100 covers the top 100k.

That's exactly why another price collapse is on the way. The market has run out of people who can just barely afford these prices, and is once again pulling in people who just can't afford these houses, but get government backed loans anyway.

The result will be the same as last time, a major price crash, the people that could afford it get fucked on equity, the people that couldn't afford it get fucked out of their down payment, and the taxpayers get fucked when all those loans the government holds go tits up.

Who does the fucking you might ask? The banking system, which gets truckloads of risk free money off the whole affair.

You're in the game, and you're going to say anything you can to keep it going.

Good luck with that.

What's the biggest debt most people have? A mortgage.

How much does a mortgage cost? Nearly double the house price.

What makes a mortgage even remotely considerable, given that most of these houses could be rented cheaper? The idea that your house will gain value to cover the interest expense.

Who pays this higher price? The next schmuck, who gets an even bigger mortgage.

It's probably because the robots stole their medicine.

...of our corporate-controlled government.

I'm sure the insurance companies have it set up so they make out like bandits no matter what happens.

...but knows when to cockpunch you for driving like an idiot would be a boon to mankind.

...but nobody will come.

...because they already have money, if we don't enslave each generation with debt?

They aren't children. They're slaves to the investor class, and it's reach the point where the next generations will never become members of the investor class.

...through the house going "WOO WOOOO WOOOOO!" every time I get out of the shower, I would not begrudge them the spectacle.

Or you are middle class, and can't quit your job because you took out a huge loan to pay 3 times too much for a house.

You'll all tell the poll you're leaving, but come back every day to complain.
