>Why does it always go back to housing market?
Two reasons
First is the fact that it's the
only asset still keeping the global economy afloat because, since the abolishment of the gold standard, it's the only form of "value" that remains stagnant due to there being innumerable reasons to own a piece of land. Meanwhile gold requires some place to put it and stocks can depreciate depending how the company performs.
>It's the same in every single first world country with insane immigration policies.
This leads us into the
second reason, which is that
the people pushing through an innumerable amount of these policies are fucking communist, and you morons need to get that through your thick skulls. Owning a house makes people responsible and independent, and the people that want to perpetuate eternal class stuggles for the purposes of bring about their demonic doomsday utopia that is Communism (
Which will only occur after every single human being is dead, with zero exxagerations and not enough emphasis placed upon that fact) cannot have that. Even "totalitarian" governments like in Singapore realized this when they were considering options on "how" to improve their country's housing crisis and noticed that
EVERY FUCKING PLACE that has implemented widespread low-cost housing units and apartments innevitably turn into shitholes where the people rely upon the governments for their living. And not wanting to be saddled with that burdern, and desiring a country that improves societally, immediately went in the opposite direction and began massive campaigns to build residential houses.
Meanwhile compare that to how
BOTH West Taiwan and the U.S. are endlessly building low-cost housing apartments across the nations, and it's resulting in our economies being on the brink of collapse and people feeling like it's the most "hopeless" time in history.

>and investment funds like Blackrock literally make money by continually buying assets that appreciate in value (real estate mostly, but also stocks).
And you want to know
HOW institutions like Blackrock became so powerful in the first place? Because retards across the country do not want to be responsible for how their financial future is handled, so they willingly give all of their pension money to an investment broker on the "promise" that he will increase it's value over 40-50 years while you're living on minimum wage. So by the time you hit
60 70, after your body is sore and broken from puting your "best years" into a job that you never wanted to do for pay far below what you're worth, you'll just sit back and be content to live out your meager life and final days of doing nothing as you're living on half the money you were previously receiving while working.
And people can blame groups like the realtors and the investment brokers all they want for making this "Hell", but the reality of the situation is that the people who responsible for this circumstance in the first place are the populace themselves. As they largely don't want to "get involved" because they see it as "none of their business" or a "waste of time", so it's allowing for the people who
DO want to get involved,
DO want to make it their business, and
DO NOT see it as a waste of time to get all the power and positions to push through these shitty policies and directives in the first place.
To cut a long story short, they only have this power because we gave it to them, meaning we can also take it away. And the only way to take away their power is to
NOT "come together as one large collective"
like every Communist keep insisting, but to take responsibility for yourself and do everything that you can yourself. If gets to the point that it's "too much" to handle, then reassess where you're putting your priorities or even ask for help (Especially where the other individual helping your allows for you to help them so that you perform a symbiotic relation and will want to help each other in the future,
AKA building trust and rapport).
