Those house owning elderly you&#x27;re feeling sorry benefitted from the biggest bull market it history. They may have saw 100x gains on their house while many youth will are spending 30-50% of their income on housing if they&#x27;re lucky to get a good job. If they do, they can look forward to paying entitlements to these elderly people while they themselves may never see the same turn done to them because the system will be bankrupt by then. I don&#x27;t see why the elderly should be any more immune to economic realities than everyone else. If you can&#x27;t afford to live in your house or city any more, at least you had an opportunity to roll the dice and make the best of your life there. Others won&#x27;t even get that. What about the people who will never afford to, people who might have made a positive net improvement to the economy if we weren&#x27;t so concerned with protecting people. If it gets too expensive, let them sell their house and go live out their lives very comfortably in a low cost city and open the room for people who are going to contribute to the economy that has to pay for their entitlements.
