    Minnesota police openly attacking, arresting journalists during protests

     

    Wtf are they thinking?  Not even people generally sympathetic to the police can reasonably support this.  At least with the protesters you can try to latch onto the whole “some of them got out of control” line.  Sympathizers can be led to believe that there are some bad actors lurking in a crowd of protesters. (whether it’s true or not) No one’s going to buy “some Minneapolis Star Tribune reporters got violent”.  If I were a police captain/commissioner actually trying to get this shit under control I’d be furious.

    Chuds hate journalists in addition to racial, ethnic, and sexual minorities.

    I had debated getting a condo here in Portland instead of paying rent for an apartment, but I imagine this bubble is bound to burst soon. 

    It's driven by lack of supply rather than speculation (as it was in 2006-08-ish) I don't see this letting up until and unless we build more housing. Just open up FRED and search "housing inventory" and look at a lot of that data, then search "population"

    Add in the downward blip on the far right in the second graph causing massive shocks to the supply chain (lumber and employment primarily) and we're probably looking at prices not really decreasing anytime soon. I'm no housing economist but I know people have to live somewhere and it doesn't appear that we're building enough housing, let alone housing in the right places, to keep things affordable, to say nothing of the other issues facing the market regarding input costs.
