I thought people in the South were polite. "not sure what I'm smoking"? I don't smoke.
There is data I pulled and graphed in the "glut article". It's an economic reality. How you interpret that data is up to you. I make my living analyzing data. People dont' want data on Medium; they want interpretation, even if it is highly speculative.
You remind me of a Yankee whiner who blames others because he can't get land at whatever low-ball offer he made or anything priced at what his dad paid 20 years ago.
Everything is priced fairly. You don't want to pay it, don't pay it. What are you smoking?
They're, we're even! :)
I admire that you build houses yourself!
