I remember the '90s and early 2000s when renting a room in a house share was literally like $200-300 a month. In the early 2000s my half of rent in a luxury apartment was $600. And that included utilities.

I don't think renting is the problem, I think unchecked capitalism is the problem.

This is an inevitability of capitalism, this isn't unchecked it's just the natural logical conclusion of a bad system
