rates have basically been on a one-way path towards zero. That has been preposterously positive for holders of fixed income. They've been way better than a safe haven.
Zero interest rates for savers. 7.5% inflation. Preposterously positive

Volcker was a Democrat as was Alfred Kahn.

The originator of the helicopter money drop was Republican Bernanke

While this is correct the larger picture is to destroy traditional family values

Don’t forget population growth and the fact that our money is used in 90% of global trade

That's a ridiculous figure. 20% of houses transacted since the crisis have been done by the Blackstones of the world? Not a chance.
I may be confusing you for another poster, but maybe not? At any rate, in a thread a few months ago on this topic you (or someone with the same POV) posted the same comment, and I responded with data that proved you had no idea what you were talking about. First, if that was you back then, wtf - is learning a temporary thing for you? Second and more relevant, regardless - you're wrong about this. And you're spectacularly wrong about this if you focus on attractive real estate markets. IOW investors aren't buying up Scottsbluff, Nebraska ... but places like I where live, Gilbert, AZ - investors are buying roughly 25% of homes on the market.

It’s estimated 20% of residential properties have been purchased by these real estate investment companies using cheap money which has helped to drive up housing costs.

I believe it was Steve Cortes who was doing his economic and financial segment on War Room a few weeks back that dropped that 20% of residential real estate transactions involved real estate investment companies, not sure what time frame he was covering but I think the period was since the financial meltdown.
The 20% of residential homes being purchased by real estate investment companies is not solely Blackstone, BlackRock, Goldman Sachs, etc it’s a general statement that would include any and all real estate investment companies.
I can tell you for about 3-4 years after the financial meltdown of 2008/2009 you could buy a really nice lake home on Table Rock, Beaver Lake, or many other lakes for less than half of what it would cost you today. What I noticed was how many of those lake homes are now vacation rentals not owned by street level investors, they’re owned by real estate investment companies who use VRBO, Airbnb etc. for rental advertising. I think both Airbnb and VRBO may also have invested in some of their own rental properties too.
