Describing people as peddling when making an argument is essentially surrendering to their argument when you don't have a legitimate response. The housing market in this country has basically become a pyramid scheme over the last couple of decades. It requires more and more new entrants supporting an argument that stuff costs a particular amount and therefore can't fall below a particular amount. Who says land should cost A Who says developers should make B Who says construction workers should make C Who says estate agents should make D Who says banks should make E Actually they do because they have loaned to B to pay A, C and D. Credit is the enemy of society, what would things actually cost without it? The ST business section ran a complete sop to Cartrawler.com last Sunday despite having laid bare it's financial position over the previous two weeks, including the fact that Bank of Ireland was writing down millions on an outstanding loan. The Governor of BOI is unbelievably also the chairman of said company! People seriously need to cop on.

If anything, this will result in jobs being reshored to Europe, Ireland, US etc. The pandemic has resulted in many MNCs identifying supply chain challenges. Expect the likes of Apple to move some manufacturing out of China and back to US and Europe. Single source supply chains are done for many.
