Fuck this article. While yes the boomers overall fucked the subsequent generations (and continue to do so with the policies they vote for), the housing crisis is not because boomers won’t give up their homes. Where the fuck do these writers expect them to live? In the abundant, affordable, small single family homes being built? Oh wait…that’s not being built? Developers and speculators are just churning out the same high-gloss “luxury” shit? And the housing crisis is primarily driven by corporations and foreign investors gobbling up housing stock? And the high interest rates are the result of those same companies raping the economy over the last 15 years and then making off like bandits leaving the rest of us with the bag?
This is nothing more than thinly veiled class division sowing. While the boomers do have a lot to answer for, the real enemy remains capitalism and the capital class that’s actively creating and exacerbating this crisis. This is the equivalent of blaming people for using plastic straws while ignoring the massive amounts of pollution generated by global corporations and militaries
oh yeah for sure
