It's more interesting to me how many people think money should, and inevitably
will, trump all other interests.

Maybe if you're a 20-something programmer uprooting your entire life to live
somewhere else after decades in a location because financial pressures outside
your control make your home and everywhere near it impossible to afford that's
not such a big deal.

But for fuck's sake, think about this for a second. Most people _do_ have
things rooting them to a particular location. Maybe it's a social circle.
Maybe it's support network. Maybe it's their career, or their children's
schooling, or their health and the local climate.

At the end of the day we as a populace get to decide public policy. Taking
people being priced out of their homes as fait accompli because them's the
market breaks is heartless enough, but then saying disdainful things about
just how painful and difficult it is is worse.
