If we ever have to go back over there to save them(if we so choose), when we are done we need to bring all Americans home, all equipemnt and let then figure how to rebuild on their own, how to finance it and how to govern. Everybody wants something, but is not willing to work for it. Just “give me”!!

If the rents are unaffordable, who is living in these apartments? Aren’t they just empty?

fully predictable. People will vote for their own self interest when it is a short term solution to their survival. They might think about it if they conservative or liberal if it involves principle.

Will they organize a small region in which capitalism and private ownership is still respected? Maybe build a wall around it so it doesn't disturb the rest of Germany.

Rents are mostly based on supply and demand after they reach the point of expenses and some profit for all the hassle.

If the rents are actuality extreme compared to expenses then Obviously there is a supply problem. This would drastically increase the supply problem.

Eviction freezes in the US have drastically decreased the number of new rentals available. Because anyone landlord who is smart gets out when they have the chance. Smaller rental properties are converted into non-rental properties.

Is it the free market when corporations like Blackrock can pay over market price and price consumers out of the housing market?

Anyone who believes government can make anything more affordable or increase supply or quality is a fool.

Especially for the invading Muslims and Africans. I left after the first bog wave of invaders. It was madness. They were filthy violent i vaders being put up in nice hotels and apartments at the expense of the native German. As with America, Germans are second class citizens and the invading African is to be worshipped and coddled.
