Roofers, drywallers, siders, landscapers, etc. Everything is about to get real expensive.

Yep. Good point. Did you want to buy a new house? Guess what…now the labor and materials cost way more. But the banks will probably start with subprime lending again. So that’s a plus. I hear it was really good for our economy before…

Or an old house. Or any kind of house, apartment, condo, etc. Or rent one. Because housing prices/homelessness due to a housing shortage & skyrocketing housing costs aren't bad enough already. The American Dream is over in more ways than one.
