Bidenomics!

You cracked the case!

It wasn’t anything like coordinated rent increases from large groups of landlords using a pricing app, it wasn’t a worldwide pandemic disrupting the market, it wasn’t America keeping housing as an investment vehicle instead of a means of sheltering humans, it wasn’t decades of wealthy investors buying housing to convert into rentals.

Nope, all of that complexity can be tossed out the window because one single man is to blame: Joe Biden. All in his first term as president too!

Which Biden has no interest in doing anything about. Why isn’t he using the bully pulpit to name and shame enemies of his administration?

it wasn’t a worldwide pandemic disrupting the market,

It’s been years since you and the rest of Democrats gave a shit about COVID, so it’s hypocritical to blame the ongoing pandemic.

Perhaps if Biden didn’t give up entirely on public health then the ongoing economic problems caused by COVID could be addressed, but instead we don’t even talk about it like it’s still a serious issue and ignore the ongoing wave of deaths. We are still having excess deaths far above the pre-pandemic period, but I bet you don’t even wear a mask to the store. What a joke.

it wasn’t America keeping housing as an investment vehicle instead of a means of sheltering humans, it wasn’t decades of wealthy investors buying housing to convert into rentals.

Both problems are something Biden helped establish over his long tenure as a Senator.

Nope, all of that complexity can be tossed out the window because one single man is to blame: Joe Biden.

Liberals in every country do this thing where they use complexity as a way to mystify and obscure the consequences of their party’s actions and inaction. Somehow the President is powerless and problems come from nowhere. No one is to blame, except maybe the red team.

It’s interesting to see the assumptions and projections you put onto me. All I’ve said is that the housing and homelessness crisis that we’re seeing in America is a multifaceted issue, and much larger than trying to simply blame one man.

For what it’s worth, I have no love for Biden and think he could be doing a hell of a lot more from his position, as could the rest of the corporate Democrat party, as could literally any Republican with a spine, but unfortunately we’re stuck with a party that won’t act and a party whose only purpose is to block the other.

I still don’t think you can distill the housing issue down to just ‘Biden bad’ though, so you should really do some introspection and see if your anger towards Biden might be blurring your viewpoint a little bit

Consider that, maybe, the assumptions and projections that you put on to me. When did I say Biden is to blame for everything? When did I actually distill the housing issue down to just ‘Biden bad’ except by glibly mocking their PR teams attempt to spin good economic news as “Bidenomics”. Remember, they’re the ones that made up that term. I was just referencing it.
