Yes, it is. It’s everything.
It’s inflation.
It’s that none of the countries you mentioned built anything during the covid craze (word selected specifically).
It’s regulation and complexity and permitting and zoning.
It’s AirBNB.
It’s remote work.
It’s manipulated stock markets and poor returns on other investments.
It’s blackrock and VCs and MBAs.
It’s out of country investors.
It’s everything.
So why these reductionist “well, I know it isn’t X” posts are supposed to be insightful, I have no idea.
Who told you it needs to be one thing, or can be disproven as one thing?
