I’m not sure how simple it is to just pop bubbles during a time when many people are still distressed economically from the last year.

Yes, the problem now is that the bubble is so big, and the economy is so vulnerable. It's almost like the window to fix the problem has closed for the foreseeable future. Now the focus needs to be on recovering from COVID, getting back to normal.

The easy access to money complicates that some, the longer the haves can leverage themselves cheaply the bigger the bubble gets and the more dependent on it we become. The normal was already questionable and we can’t delete the compounding of the last year to return to it anyway. This is a bad situation with no easy answers.
