Homes are unaffordable to most. Even if you sell your house for a million dollar where will You move to? As far jobs are concerned the job market is completely fucked up. Their is oversupply and there are no wage increase. It does not take a genius to understand why there is no mobility.
There aren’t enough homes or jobs. What do?
We're heading further into a reality where there just aren't enough jobs. All the money has been hoovered into the stock market. There's just not enough floating around to pay people, it's all going into LLM electricity or graphics cards. We should be living in a time of ease, where the whole planet is sustained with all of us only working a few hours a week. Instead most people are fighting for scraps barely able to…

The job market is scary. I can afford a better house right now but am scared shitless I won’t be able to keep my income up. So we stay in our small old house for now, maybe forever.

Because you've all treated housing as a financial instrument, instead of what it should be: safety for your family.

Improving mobility means that you have to make a single earner household a viable pathway again. That means bring house prices down and subsidizing childcare.
