Just because some people can&#x27;t afford things doesn&#x27;t mean those things aren&#x27;t over-produced. Every year there are a large, large number of brand new cars that don&#x27;t get sold, and are marked down when the next model year comes in. Likewise there are structures that get built and never sell out. A building of condos near my house never got bought, so they turned them into apartments for far, far cheaper than they were priced as condos. We overproduce clothes so much that there are several nation-wide retail stores specializing in overstock merchandise for very cheap (TJ Maxx for example). All of these things are places where we have more than necessary production, so priced get driven down to where they are more affordable for poorer people.<p>The person you replied to said &quot;production isn&#x27;t the problem, distribution is&quot;, and you seemed to agree with that in your comment. Getting poor people cars and houses and services isn&#x27;t a production problem, it&#x27;s a distribution problem. It&#x27;s a pricing problem. It&#x27;s an efficiency problem. Producing more cars isn&#x27;t going to make them easier for poor people to afford.
