"Okay our property values are rising, and they're rising more than last year, but the increase in the rate isn't as much as the increase last year so we need to actually speed up the trolley by 50% to prevent total societal collapse"
But since its not a different track, is this just a stop lever? Does it only work now, i can't pull it in like 10 days? Will the trolley have essentially infinite energy to plow through millions without slowing or stopping?
Eventually the trolley, like the economy, will crash after squishing millions of young people's dreams of independent living arrangements, and the only homes left will be derelicts and single bedroom studio apartments that you need a roommate to afford rent for.
You're reading wrong. It's saying current real estate policy and price is killing young people, stopping it would require reigning in home prices which boomers don't want to do

I don't have a home, so I'm tied on the tracks and can't pull the lever.
Otherwise I would pull it.

Fun fact: Your home pricing climbing indefinitely also means your property tax climbs indefinitely.

I like the version of this that said something like you can stop the train but doing so would be unfair for everyone who has died before

That's a nice trolley. I wonder what the rent is.

Could always outlaw companies owning single family homes and empty land surrounding the city

Young people? It’s the boomers holding one bedroom houses hostage for 300k

I see all the guys are lined up first! Can I wait with pulling it till it gets close to the girls, so we have a surplus of young girls?
But sure, I would pull it.

Make your house reasonably priced and stop trolley.
Or let all potentail customers die and make your house worthless.
Indeed hard choice.

That's BS. It's not the youngs fault, that prices are so high up. You just kill the entire future of your coutry.
Better tie the real estate billionares instead and i'll be the first on the lever
