When did a living wage become “buy real estate” wage? A house in my area is two million dollars. So you guys really want everyone to become a millionaire, huh?
If houses would not cost unreasonable amounts then a normal salary would be able to afford one. You can’t demand a salary that can afford a house because houses are NOT reasonably priced, so your demand is not a reasonable one either

When living meant affording a home. And no, I want houses to not cost unreasonable amounts just like I want wages to reflect inflation.

…does not reflect inflation. I have no idea why you think wages that have been stagnant for decades are sustainable or why housing prices are justified.
