    Rents are skyrocketing because demand is high and we literally do not have enough housing for the number of people we have in the places they live.

    Suddenly dumping more money into the economy would just increase the price bar on that demand, and prices would go up more.

    Prices can increase for a lot of reasons, and going up from one doesn’t stop them from going up from another.

    Similarly, from an engineer’s perspective, scientists are a great addition to the working group when you need to find the flaws in the system, but awful when you actually just need something to go into the real world and work 80% of the time ;)

    Especially when you’re time constrained.
