The same free market that would kill them for a Klondike bar? Sounds about right.

Do you people actually think the housing market is a free market????? It's one of the most overly regulated markets! Zoning laws restrict what kind of housing can be built all over the US. Getting rid of those would allow for more mixed style housing and that is one example of de-regulation and making a freer market.

You're conflating the meme's argument with a whole host of problems designed to segregate and let companies profiteer off of single-family housing.
