I wonder why the rich and those in charge of regulating and steering policy think it will not end bad for them too when masses could not afford the housing on the highly inflated prices fuelled by passive money drawn out of economy into "investment" (more like sleeping) properties, hence crashing housing prices all around making them loose a lot. And that all that living cost hikes will not exacerbate things further accelerating this crash as people need to spend sooo much on housing less remains there for the functional parts of the economy? They hope they die before this comes or what?! They will not be in charge and could sip gin and tonic silently in a big warm garden somewhere before this happens? But what about their children and their other young family members? What will they do with properties woth nothing in a dissolving society where it will not be good or perhaps not even safe living due to unrest of the poor? A frequently repeting worry in articles and analysis here and there is the gigantic wealth accumulated for few stucked away suffocating the rest of the society and raising desperation yet what I can see people seem to mumble "it's ok so far, it's ok so far" to themselves while falling alongside a high rise building. Do they hope for a soft landing with this behaviour? They hope that printing cash in increased speed pumped into even more passive wealth here and there through the sliding middle and lower classes will last forever?
