At this rate, you won't buy a house, you'll just pick the vacant one you want.

That's why the corporations went nuts buying them up last year. To hide the empty ones. That massive zillow buy wasn't a natural thing.

Nah, Blackrock and Vanguard will have snatched up all the real estate by then.

Missed your comment. Yeah that wasn't a normal purchasing spree last year. People would notice all the empty houses if they weren't bought by someone. Check out a beach town, seems like half the houses are for sale and I've never seen that before. So many of them are owned by the people of the age they are eliminating first

This could affect the balance of power in the Middle East. It will cripple the IDF and Mossad, assuming the latter have had the real McCoy, natch.
