I remember looking up just the air b&b’s in the Portland metro and there were over 4,000……
A large majority of the rest were being rented.

Rich people outbid regular folks for real resources (homes), taking away any chance at intergenerational wealth building. the only (legal) answer at the moment is taxation of the rich.
