[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm an economist

Government has screwed up by putting in affordable housing minimum wage etc.  All these artifical floors that keep lower class people dependent and screw over the middle class

Now before you call me heartless here is what should happen

1.  You get rid of affordable housing and the minimum wage
2.  You let the market work..... wages and housing will adjust based on supply and demand.

DC is screwed up because of 1.  If you were able to get rid of that you would have 2 where wages would actaully increase or real estate would decrease to an equlibrium point to allow for service workers to have a reasonable wage, reasonable housing and reasonable healthcare.  It's all supply and demand.  People will only take jobs if they can afford to live in an area.  If noone takes the job then you either increase wages or automate

Again there are plenty of other places across the country with lower cost of living

P.S. the third thing you have to do is reform immigration.  All the wages being paid under the table is screwing the system as well.  Yes illegal immigration totally hurts the law abiding lower class.[/quote]

Real estate would only "adjust" to house the highest bidders. No way in hell would it "correct itself" to enable people of all income brackets to be housed.[/quote]
