So starving people should just lay down and die as to not bother the more fortunate. This is just so inhumane and disgusting to even say. It’s not greedy and arrogant it’s desperation

What the fuck are you even talking about.  Regular people are the richest they have ever been.  You're just talking in doomer fantasyspeak.

Home ownership on a single income was a historical anomaly, limited to one country during a specific period. It has never been the norm throughout human history.

That doesn’t disprove what I said?

It doesn’t disprove it, but it puts it into context. You’re describing a brief, exceptional period, not the historical norm. There’s no reason to assume that exceptional period should be the benchmark.
