HOUSING. Millennials and younger age cohorts need affordable and preferably private, housing.
Zuckerberg - "we work a lot on housing, but perhaps there are specific things we could do to make housing more affordable with an emphasis on younger people who don't have large families yet."
This is smart, though the conspiracist in me wonders if he's talking about "pods"?
Thiel - "What I would add to Mark's summary is that, in a healthier society, the handover from the Boomers to the younger generations should have started some time ago (maybe as early as the 1990s for Gen X), and that for a whole variety of reasons, this generational transition has been delayed as the Boomers have maintained an iron grip on many US institutions."
Refreshing. Talking to you NIMBYS.
I assume a lot of the negative comments in this thread are from those who the system has worked for, those with housing and wealth. Talk about an impending revolution from organized labor sounds like wealthy liberals larping as radicals. We need real solutions from those capable of providing it, fast. It can't get much worse, if Zuck, Thiel or whoever want to have a go at reforming this mess I say cheers.
