I think non affordable housing makes values come down too. Just I a less controlled way.

Eventually people will just stop participating in the housing game and there’s no telling where that will lead.

Stop participating in the housing game? How? By becoming homeless?

Mobile homes, roommates, vans, or maybe new disruptive ideas in housing we haven’t thought of yet.

Everyone has a price they wouldn’t or couldn’t afford housing.

What game? Not being homeless?

People will always want a place to live.
