Agreed. To me, the root the issue with American politics, is that everyone wants free lunch. Everyone wants the benefits, but doesn’t want to pay the costs that come with those benefits.

Like with housing. People think it’s too expensive, but nobody wants their own houses value to go down. And if you point that out those are mutually exclusive, they tell you you’re an asshole. They start spouting off insane nonsense about how it must be possible, but someone ‘evil’ is preventing it.
