      Thanks for always being there to show us what our future is like. It’s the time zone thing, and it’s great that you’re always a step ahead. Will these fires consume us or will we find a way out? What will the rains and the stampede of spiders be like?How’s Thursday going so far?

      Especially because the people who own houses have much more political power than the people who want houses. Any government that wants to have and use political power will cater to the people who don’t want a crash.

      It seems like the only realistic hope (and an outside chance at that) is for prices to stagnate for decades. If that happened, your grandkids might be able to afford houses on normal wages (assuming their parents didn’t emigrate in frustration).
