The idea that 40 years and this house cost than 10x more?

I know there’s a lot of other factors. I’m just… Sigh.

    My grandmother’s house, which was in a VERY nice, very high class neighborhood, was $20k back in the early 80s. Today, the area is destroyed and had become another run down suburb near Detroit. It’s dangerous to live in, but that house is still $160k.

    WWII saw the end of almost 500k American lives, but the population of the country still increased. There will always be more people, but there will never be more Earth.
