Yes, I totally agree. When I was young I used to think, if you’ve worked hard and bought yourself a little weekender or property to one day retire to, like some of my friends did, then good on you. But with negative gearing, stagnant wage reform, stagnant social security payments, the air bnb situation, and people owning not “a little weekender” but 10, 20, 100 properties, it’s beyond a joke. Housing is a right and should never be treated like it isn’t.
