The powers that be would rather you quibble over inconsequential immigration than notice the other hand reaching into your wallet. It’s just that simple.

It's tempting to blame a conspiracy. But at least the housing cost side of the equation is quite obviously a policy choice in much of the country.

- kjkjadksj 2y agoWhy are you citing homeownership stats? I saw fox news on tv in public recently. The headline cited “millions of migrants overwhelming border.” These are the powers that be who I am referring to. The powers who craft those unhinged headlines and also stand to benefit in some way by entrenching those headlines into the formative minds of their dedicated political base.
