Regular People Are Being Priced Out of Life (Video)

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.


In this 26 November 2025 video, host Michael Bordenaro talks about how the statement “Regular People Are Being Priced Out of Life” reflects a widespread affordability crisis driven by costs for housing, healthcare, and other necessities rising faster than wages. This is particularly evident in the housing market, where a shortage of homes and rising mortgage rates have made both renting and buying difficult, especially for the middle class. The crisis means fewer people can afford a “minimal quality of life,” which includes basic housing, food, transportation, and healthcare. More and more Americans are being priced out of the American dream.

Key factors contributing to the affordability crisis

Housing:

  • A significant shortage of housing units means demand outstrips supply.
  • Record-high home prices and mortgage rates make homeownership unattainable for many, even with a six-figure income.
  • Renting is also becoming more expensive, with many households now spending more than 30% of their income on housing.

Wages vs. costs:

  • Wages have not kept pace with the rapid increase in essential costs like housing, food, and healthcare.
  • This disparity means that while many may be earning more than their parents, their money buys significantly less.

Market concentration:

In critical sectors like housing and healthcare, market concentration has reduced competition, allowing companies to increase prices faster than incomes rise.

Financial strain and consequences:

  • The inability to afford basic needs has led to reduced access to healthcare, difficulty paying bills, and a higher risk of eviction or homelessness.
  • It forces people to prioritize essential expenses, leaving less for savings, leisure, or other necessities.
  • Many people are also taking on high levels of debt to maintain a lifestyle they cannot truly afford.
