Why are people still defending the median house price is half a million dollar at 7% interest? And anyplace on the west coast is going to be another 100k.Why hasnt the population taken a step back and called this entire thing retarded and then fixed it? In a functional country this wouldn't continue.

>>54614279790% of society believes that the free market is evil and that the government is on their side. That's why they always vote for a bigger government to regulate their lives. As a result, the government regulates the financial sector, the construction industry, and everything else. The result is that everything becomes an order of magnitude more expensive.Of course, people respond by saying that we need to vote for better politicians, but the government's incentive structure makes this impossible. Politicians have no real accountability, nor can they, so they're incentivized to serve their own interests and those of their cronies at everyone else's expense.

Why would you edit it to be a shittier version without changing the point?The retardation is beyond me.
>>546143419>social choice theorySo the basic understanding of everyday reality is just a theory for you from an old book. Lol!>Since then governments have largely got into bed with the free marketOxymoron. It's either government OR free market. Free market is when the government is not involved. But of course on lefty-land any word can mean anything if it justifies violence against your opposition.

>>546144011In many places in Hungary, these old concrete panel buildings have been covered with insulation and attractive, colorful render, making them look significantly better. There's no requirement to use a Brutalist aesthetic; that was just a Russian obsession.
