What delusion? Are you denying what we've all lived through the last couple years?
I was a serious situation in the beginning, Trump totally fooked up the response. You have no fooking clue how it would of went with the public health measures taken in every developed nation. Of course you being a twitter expert you think you know better.

How exactly did greed increase housing costs? :unsure: Remote work and low interest rates is largely to blame.
Corporations buying single family homes and rentals using computers to collude on price. What you posted are factors as well

What you describe above is a very small portion of home sales. Being able to make a big city salary in a college or resort town had a much more dramatic effect

I see no lies

The overblown panic was reaction to statements like this

It disappear, and the risk was insanely low, as we all know. If it would have been ignored 4 years ago we would have been not only fine, but in a better place than we are in now

You guys did this to yourselves

Mask up dummies
The risk of dying from Covid was somewhere between the risk of dying from cancer and dying from an accident. During the pandemic it was the third highest cause of death.

Not insanely low.

Well they kept society and the economy quite alive, and it's currently going gangbusters by every possible measure (employment, GDP, manufacturing output, consumer spending, etc.) are all way up, when adjusted for inflation.

The panic is what made it "serious"

Four Years Ago Began 2-Weeks To Stop The Spread. Never forget.

and also began your endless whinging about permanent mask mandates, great reset, constant population controls, and we’ll never get our freedumb back.

fast forward a few years and everything is back to normal.

without the media panic and the lockdowns that followed i would not have been able to tell that there was anything unusual happening
When my wife‘s 2 hospital coworkers died within a day or 2 of each other, it was hard to not notice something was happening
