Seems to be a different issue than what's being discussed here?

Housing prices didn't fall last quarter.

Someone just had a soapbox moment.

Anyway, from my personal experience, my personal wealth rate of change was definitely negatively affected by the housing market, due to increase in valuations, which turned into a significant increase in real estate taxes.

I live in one of those places (Austin) where my house valuation jumped by 120% YoY.

Why is inequality bad and more importantly, what levels of inequality are acceptable? What is the objective standard here and what are the criteria/reasons that justify that standard?

can you share your logic?

claims that housing being valuable leads to "bad incentives", bigger inequality, and overall poorer society aren't obviously true to me.

Its bad for the ~third of households that don't own housing. But from classic wealth distribution metrics, I suspect it's overall a good thing for inequality (because so many people own their own houses).
