I agree with a lot of what you are saying, but to say it is easier to buy a home now than at any time in the past is objectively untrue. Yes, houses today are much better than 50 years ago, but the cost to entry has gone up faster than salaries. When my parents bought their first home, the median salary-to-home cost ratio was roughly 1:1. It is closer to 1:6 today. Yes homes are more valuable today, but they are also objectively more difficult to purchase.
