I suppose house prices dropping are pretty terrible if you see your house only as an investment, instead of a roof over your head. I know people who would be fucked in their retirement if they house price falls, because they’ve gambled on their house price climbing enough to carry them through retirement.
I hope they get hurt though. Treating housing as an investment that needs to turn a profit, while people are living on the streets is fucking insane.
Declining birth rates and house prices dropping are both things the media love to make out are terrible things.
And they just aren’t.
and guess who own’s the media’s editorial circle?
