This is an example of why we should've followed the argument of the anti-loan forgiveness crowd. They knew when they deposited their cash that it was either FDIC insured up to 250k or not insured at all. Allowing them to be made whole despite being the cause of the collapse will only embolden fucksticks like this to do the same again.

But that's the problem, someone else is buying those houses, and the market keeps going and will keep going.

As of now in March 2023, the market has slowed down and a bit less expensive, which was why the interest rates were raised. However, is not like houses sit on the market for long. As some other mentioned, there are a bunch of real estate managers buying houses/apartments and renting them, probably to that common man you mentioned.

They would need: to make credits easier for people who can't afford it, idk mark them as high-risk and give them a higher but variable interest rate, and then everyone can buy a house!!! /S (<- just in case people don't know, this is exactly the idea and what caused 2007 crash)

One billion seconds is much longer than one million seconds. Specifically:

One million seconds is equal to approximately 11.57 days (1,000,000 seconds / 86,400 seconds per day). One billion seconds is equal to approximately 31.71 years (1,000,000,000 seconds / 31,536,000 seconds per year). Therefore, one billion seconds is roughly 86,400 times longer than one million seconds.
