Reply #10: A whole generation has been conditioned to believe in "what the market will bear is right" [View All]

There is no such thing as "overpriced" or "thoo much profit". If someone will pay it, it's worth that much.

My Stepdad is one of these - he pooh-poohed my gripes about the absurd price of houses with this free-market dogma BS.

This guy thought of Reagan as the second coming.

Of course, he and my mom spend like sailors on leave with a fancy cliffside house overlooking the city, always late-model cars, trips abroad, eating out at the nicest restaurants several times a week - and they have practically ZILCH in savings although they're almost 70.

Whatever.
