It's insidious. Here's a translation of something I just read today:
> Shared accommodation is on a roll. Traditionally aimed at students in search of cheaper rents and conviviality, it is now attracting young working people looking for flexibility and quality solutions to the increasingly restricted access to home ownership.
> Amandine Cloot and Paolo Leonardi are journalists with the Economy division. They came into the studio to talk about young people's current real estate real estate.

They make it sound like it's a choice.
It's getting clearer to me everyday that journalists are just parroting bullet points from "experts". Just like they call on temporary employment agency to talk about labor law reforms. We are fucked.
In my country they are trying to transform social housing (housing built by the state for low-income households or people who can't work anymore) into a investment product. They try to get deals with private investors to finance the buildings in exchange of interests on the rents or monopolies on services. Social housing can't bring in enough money to be an investment product. This won't end well.
