Considering how crazy expensive accommodations have become the last couple of years, concentrated in the hands of greedy corporations, landlords and how little politicians seem to care about this problem, do you think we will ever experience a real estate market crash that would bring those exorbitant prices back to Earth?

    It’s not about availability, it’s about willingness.

    Same difference. No one is willing to start a fight with people who are well-equipped with arms and actual weapons when all they have are torches and pitchforks.

      No, not same difference.

      The opponent is a modern military, and I have an assault rifle and Molotov cocktails.

      If I’m starving to death, yeah maybe I take up arms. If I’ve at least got some food and a charged up phone? I might tell myself I’ll take up arms tomorrow, but again, let’s face it.
