so what I’m hearing, is I should be expected to pay whatever rent and listen to whatever rules the Lord of the Land hands down to me (the peasant) for however long it takes rich boomers to finally die?

As someone who actually owns their home with no mortgage, CRASH THE FUCKING MARKET ALREADY. Even if I have to sell my house low, buying a new one would be cheaper. DUH

this is some D- reading comprehension, my friend every home is owned by someone. “Keeping prices up for people who own their homes” means driving up all housing costs.
