He doesn’t want to bring real estate prices down because it’ll hurt his and his buddies tax shenanigans that are only available to the rich

Yeah, that's my read too. Only people who own tons of property really care about home prices.

I care because my family situation is different from what it was 11 years ago when I bought my house. Trouble is, houses like I would upgrade to have appreciated much faster than what my starter home has, and we are single income, so I am stuck too.

Don't get me wrong, I'm thankful I'm on the bottom rung of the home ladder, but it would be nice to get a different layout and lot style than my current that doesn't meet my needs quite so well.
