people still building houses in this current economic situation?
Yes when you check the FRED. Down but still well above 2008 thru 2018 starts - and not much lower than starts in 2007.

The argument from the real estate industry is there must be an undersupply of homes but this argument amounts to "wishcasting" IMO because of what the FRED data on rate of home ownership (homes lived in by the person owning the mortgage or property outright) show.

There absolutely is. More so, inventory of quality inventory is lacking.

There is.
The FRED data shows homeowner vacancy rate at an all time low of .8% for Q4 2022. LINK
Rental vacancy rate is at the lowest levels since pre-1985. LINK
This chart shows homeownership, homeowner vacancy and rental vacancy all on one graph. LINK
Starts are down, but vacancy rates are the lowest they've been in ~40 years. There is an undersupply. Of course housing is regional so it will look different depending on population migration.
