&gt; a 55% who hates the 45%<p>You don&#x27;t even need &quot;hate&quot;. You only need 55% of the people to own houses, and the other 45% not to. The 55% will vote in the government that makes it easiest for immigrants to come in and push up those house prices, including rents. Just look at Australia&#x2F;NZ and Canada wrt immigrants from particularly Asia: 55% of the people will sell citizenships to the detriment of the other 45%. Since 2008, the US has started doing the same, not out of people having &quot;hate&quot; but out of making money from their houses.
