This chart is extraordinary. Want to know the part I find so funny? The last time homes were reasonably priced and sensible was the exact same time Bill Clinton came out all weepy and lip-biting, talking about how everyone should have a chance to afford a home, so he had the government ejaculate hundreds of billions of dollars of “help” to people who should NOT have bought a home in the first place. That’s where the housing bubble came from. Because politicians are morons.
