MOUNT VERNON — If you — like me — have had to move recently, you know what an unholy nightmare housing is right now in this country.

It’s well-known that I often mock unfounded nostalgia about “the good old days,” but on this point I’ll yield: There was a better time, a time when housing was affordable to people who held down an honest job, which is more than I can say for today.
