I wonder if any of them will wake up at all and realise why the housing prices are skyrocketing
I doubt that. For them it is like a natural event, like rain. I had this discussion about immigration with a friend not so long ago, basically I was having another anti-immigration rant and how it helps rich investors and keeps lower income people down and now it hurts us in the middle as well. And his argument was that immigration is happening, is happening everywhere and there is nothing to do about it.
For him it was just there, it's not like policies and laws can affect it in any way, it was not the responsibility of the government either, he has a very strange disconnect for a guy that is very intelligent.
People in the west are so thoroughly brainfucked by decades of incessant propaganda, they're convinced they can control the weather by eating bugs, but controlling immigration or crime or hobos shitting in the streets and attacking random people is unfathomable to them.
They are already working on resolving it.
Increase immigration => Real estate becomes more expensive => banks and wealthy investors make a ton of money
