      I feel like all the different eviction laws across the country will stagger the evictions in a way that will never force a mass confrontation of soon-to-be-homeless tenants vs the system.

      Returning home to parents, living with friends, living in vehicles, and setting up in tent cities seems so normalized since 2008 that I'm afraid Americans will roll over and take this, too.

        nah, too many crises all at once and the state can't meaningfully respond to any of them. things are going to break down this fall.

      I have no idea what's up. I'd have thought some of them would be underway by now. But then again 2009 meant tons of mass evictions and foreclosures and it was almost invisible.

          It's bonkers, in the US it's so fragmented here that an entire populace can feel something and no one else will even know it happened or see it.

            I was too young to be face to face with the situation, but the only thing I noticed was that development of my 80 percent complete well-off neighborhood stalled, and most of the immigrant community moved away.
