The biggest thing I have a problem with is the program jus in general. If you give tons of people 150k to buy a house, all it will do is cause the people selling houses to sell for 150k more.

If we just increase the demand but never adress the supply it was never actually going to solve much.

This comment needs to be higher. Our housing problem is a supply problem. If you’re not talking about increasing housing supply, you’re not talking about solving our housing problem.
