What I'm really wondering is what you think drives the current sentiments we hear about the affordability crisis (that there is one and that it's a big deal), if inflation is actually low?
Are there actual economic realities behind it separate from inflation, or is there something else that drives the narrative?
To be transparent - I don't have a strong opinion on the issue and no real understanding of how real or not real the affordability crisis is in the US.
My reddit feed has a semi-steady stream of articles with headlines with "'I Can't Afford This' Trump Voters in Rural America Stunned as Cost of Living Keeps Rising" and I'm wondering how real it is beyond the anecdote.
To be blunt I think it's Democratic fake news. CNN and NPR hunt down some anecdotes, avoid quanitifying it, and call it a thing.
