1000000% agree, you said it perfectly.

I especially get so pissed about houses. Houses are for living in, they are not speculative investments. In my culture, a family builds a house and then their descendants live in it for hundreds of years. The house is part of the family and is considered a living entity with its own god. When I visit Western so-called "developed" countries, all I see are shoddy houses thrown together by the lowest bidder and meant to last 50 years tops, within which time they'll have been bought and sold a dozen times by people who don't even know one another. Capitalism ruined Westerners' connection to the land and one another.
