Yes, we have a housing crisis.
But, more accurately, we have an economic crisis.
We have built an economy in which millions of people work full-time, but still require government assistance just to eat.
At the same time a small number of billionaires gather in a greater amount of our wealth

We have a housing crisis in the US
In 1985, the median income was $23,620, and the median price of a home was $84,300 - 3.6 times the typical income
In 2023, the median price of a home was $428,600 - 5.3 times the median income of $80,061
50-year mortgages are NOT the answer; we need more houses
