VCs are financing an economy of servants

That only works if the landlords who are "in on the game" own all the houses. If they only own half, and people double up, then the landlords who are trying to play this game end up with $0 income for their investments. That's going to be painful - hopefully painful enough that they have to abandon the strategy, and we can return to sanity.

They just take up more loans to cover their debts. That works while interest rates are zero or lower. Hyperinflation here we come.

"Hyperinflation here we come" and "interest rates are zero or lower" aren't going to coexist, at least not for long.
