This is why we must freeze USDA funding, halt all public health communications from our federal government, and urgently (TOP PRIORITY!!!) scrub all mentions of the word "women" from every public-facing piece of scientific content we can find.

I hope they stop this cultural war and focus on the real problems that actually affects the population,for example, high prices.

Prices aren't high on anything except for housing.

No politician, either past present or future, will ever run on a platform of reducing housing prices.

Here are several specific proposals to do just that: https://nlihc.org/resource/harris-campaign-releases-plans-lo...

Not a fan of credits to buyers (just inflates prices further) but I'm a big fan of credits to developers, streamlining permitting, and making some federal land available for development.

Regardless of whether you think these are good policies or an effective platform, it is patently false to say no one would run on such a promise.

Those are all great policies. And yes credits to buyers is pretty stupid.

But this is still a far cry from "vote for me and your home value will go down".

Because why would you say that?

You would say "we're going to build more housing."

Eggs are not treated as the most important investment of your life, the value of which you hedge the entire rest of your life against, and which is expected to increase in value to support an growing rather than shrinking lifestyle. Eggs are nothing like houses economically
