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?

    The solution is simple, but will never happen. Make it illegal to own a home you don’t live in.

      What about apartments? Dorms? Would that make being homeless illegal?

      Canada banned foreign ownership, and a bunch of local shell companies popped up. So it is not as simple as it sounds.
