This.

We were already experiencing inflation (cost of living went up because housing went up because we bailed out a bunch of banks that should have failed.) This time it's just more obvious because the price of things people buy directly went up immediately.

I will never buy a home again if costs don't drop dramatically... because unlike what most people think, a house is generally not an investment, unless you rent it
