    That’s not proof an economy works. That’s proof you can own a home.

        Holy shit you make a point and then lose reality. Why the fuck do you think those people were in poverty in the first place? You think what made them in poverty disappeared or was masked? There are still rich, poor and middle class. They have a broken economy because everyone has a broken economy.

          Calm down, big guy. I’m saying their economy is working waaaaay better than any western neoliberal capitalist structures.
