Wonking Out: How the Remote Work Craze Made Housing Affordability Worse (opens in new tab)

That is, we've been building up to this. Many, sans the (disconnect) elites, have been feeling the pain for too long. You can't intentional neglect so many for so long and then expect them to vote "rationally."

In any case, this is the second mainstream source - the other was Marketplace (NPR) - that blames the common man / woman *and* WFH.

It's not the lack of new housing. It's not the fact that Wall Street types are buying up residential property at scale. And it's not the Fed for over-indulging in cheap money for too long.

Nah.

It's you and me, and wanting to be more connected to our families. It's sad to see NYT so fallen.

I keep thinking these are good articles, I’d like to pay what for reading them.

But I’ve been too burnt by signing up for things, where you have to phone in to say you want to stop the subscription, which means changing phone contracts to make an actual call abroad beyond.

Foreign Policy was the one that scarred me, and I’ve heard of many subscription snares, maybe NYTimes is fine.
