90% of chinese people already own their home anyway and don't view their homes as an appreciating asset the way westerners have been brainwashed into viewing them, so this wont hurt anybody who already owns a home and will only help those who have yet to get on the property ladder.

china stays winning meanwhile you cant scroll on american social media more than twice without seeing something pop up from someone crying because they can't afford rent food or both
