LOL, riiiight, capitalism is the problem huh? It is not that demonrats/liberals have increased the price of homes so much in Liberat areas that not a lot of people can afford them... BTW, it is not capitalism that is doing that. What you want "socialism" will make it even worse. Instead of having a small percentage living like this you would have the large majority living similarly...

This form 2016.

In California, where the average home price is roughly two-and-a-half times the national average, buying your first home is more than a little daunting.

Just ask Michael Soussa. The 31-year-old, who works in engineering sales, grimaced his way through an open house in Eagle Rock. The three-bedroom house had all the hallmarks of an on-trend flip: dark hardwood, Edison bulb light fixtures, subway tile in the kitchen.

But the $649,000 price tag — $549 per square foot — was “ridiculous,” he said.

"For a single guy, 31, who makes good money, it's very difficult to buy a home," Soussa said.

With home prices in much of L.A. at pre-recession levels, or exceeding them, first-time buyers are struggling to break into the market.

How California home prices got sky-high

The super rich Liberals in Calihellfornia are part of the problem, they help to elevate the prices of homes because of the excess that "super liberals" are known for. Despite claiming "they are for the environment," liberals on the overall want big expensive houses for themselves. Take a look at every liberal moron who wants the implementation of the "new green deal" from moron wannabe in chief AOC. From the Gates' mansion, to de caprio (spelling?) mansion, and everyone in between. Heck even multi-millionaire, or is it multi-billionaire?, Al Gore lives in a super mansion meanwhile preaching that the rest of the world should drive bicicles and live in small homes "for the good of the environment."

Contrary to what "liberals" in the forums want to say, people are LEAVING Calihellfornia and not flocking there...

...
As a result, businesses are increasingly struggling to recruit from out of state; a larger share of people are enduring one-way commutes of more than 90 minutes; and more people are leaving California than moving here from elsewhere in the U.S.
...
A USC/Los Angeles Business Council survey of major L.A.-area companies last year found 10 of the 14 that responded said the cost of housing is a challenge for retaining employees, with most reporting they lost workers because of high housing prices.

But hey, Liberals/democrats want to spend more money on illegals while having open borders, so the illegals can be used to drown the votes and representation of LEGAL residents and U.S. citizens...

Next thing liberals/democrats will claim is that the crime infested democrat/liberal areas/cities/states like Chicago is not because of liberal/democrat policies but because of the neighboring republican/conservative areas... Right?

Did I say I want socialism? No I did not. You only inferred it because you automatically assume than any criticism of capitalism must mean that that criticism means the alternative must be socialism.

It is not. Socialism has lost. It lost because those placed in charge with ushering it in, the Communists failed to prevent authoritarians from taking over those nations that tried turning those nations into large, authoritarian corporations which engage in what...the capitalist world. China is one big capitalist corporation with one supreme CEO.

So these dreaded liberals you love to deride. They are capitalists. Some may call themselves socialists but they are not. They have ideas that stretch to the farther limits of capitalist phisosophy and from the opposite far corners of conservatism that may ''look'' like socialism but it is not.

So when I suggest that much of the problem we face is due to capitalism it is from within the frame work that that is all we have as an economic system which is the driving force of this modern world. Like it or leave it.
