Industry professionals say unbought condos could lead to big layoffs

Everything is unaffordable, workers are all being laid off, AI is replacing people, minimum wage isn't enough to support a living wage...

What's the capitalist end-game here? A world full of poor, unemployed, desperate people likely won't make shareholders any richer, will it?

Yeah, they all seem to gravitate towards that. Hopefully I'm helping.

Since I've been white knighting for developers and investors up and down this thread, I should probably mention that I still am team eat the rich, or at least team we shouldn't have any rich. The funny thing is that they wish they were evil geniuses, like their opposite number around here seems to want to think.
