    If people spent the same amount of money on housing as they are paying for food, maybe you’d have a point. Even in the link that you’ve provided, people calculated that housing is about x6.1 median salary today compared to x2.7 in 1977.

      I didn’t know you could eat your house… Also overall affordability wasn’t that much better back then. Again, plenty of examples there.
