Europe is in the midst of a massive housing crisis.

Canada has possibly the worst housing crisis in the developed world

Korean homes are 3x as much in the major cities as smaller rural cities.

Housing has been consuming a larger and larger chunk of people’s incomes for the past 15 years. That’s a cost of living crisis. Because the 2008 crash allowed the wealthy to pick up all the pieces and restart the game using the exact same rules. Nothing changed, nothing improved, neoiberals just painted over the foundational cracks of our society and said everything is fine now. The finacialization of every aspect of our lives has only become more extreme, so i would definitely say the 2008 crisis was never actually solved.
