The Boomer generation spent their lives voting for politicians who told them cut taxes, cut taxes, cut taxes, and the rich will increase supply until everything's cheaper. You can have your cake and eat it too.
They're now learning, too late, that that doesn't work on housing.

It's a small comfort to my generation that conservative Boomers are only now realizing that the same policies they voted for that kept us in their basements are going to keep them from retiring.
Oh, and since every single time I point this out I get accused of generational bigotry: of course not all Boomers vote the same and plenty of them voted for responsible government. But the generation as a whole, did not. Come at me.
