It makes a lot more sense when you realize half of boomers think they can “downsize” into something that doesn’t exist in the market anymore because prices have skyrocketed across the board. Boomers have never existed in a period when home ownership wasn’t expected for almost everyone and still believe they deserve it for no reason. That’s why boomer dominated states like Florida are trying to make individual homes exempt from property taxes, it’s all to coddle boomers about to retire.
