我见 我思 我闻


房物价上涨 非民之福


今年四月份之房价统计,全国房价比去年同期上涨了百方之二十二点二,在同一时期 房物消售量增加了百分之三十八点二,而房屋出售量减少了百分之四十八点三, 可说是供不应求之窘境。


今晨在一家全国知名之连锁餐厅用早餐,同样之餐价格比疫情前足足增加了一倍, 从五元九十九分到今天的十一元九十分,和一位从事建筑的友人获知木材价格已经上涨了三倍,从亚洲到美国的海运费也涨了三倍之多。


新冠病毒澈底击败了世界経济之格局,我们要呼吁拜登总统要正视目前国内物价及房价之高涨, 造成之通货膨胀及民眾之苦难, 我们看到一群无法住房的白领在加州圣地牙哥、旧金山 睡在汽车𥚃,是何等之讽刺。


今天我们必须要重新考虑和中国在内的许多国家正在进行的贸易关税战,大家如果到各大超市去,百分之九十之產品是中国和亚洲製造,换言之,这些產品制造业是无法在短时间或未来搬回美国, 目前美国实施之关税还是加在消费者身上,因而造成物价飞涨之原因。


木材、铝制品、室内装饰更是大幅上涨,建筑商叫哭连天,没有人要承担赔本去盖住房,这也是目前全国房价飞涨之原因。


我们虽然已经从疫情中慢步走了出来,我们奉劝拜登总统能体查苍生之苦,物价房价是当急之务。








National Housing Shortage And Rising Prices


According to a national survey, home prices nationwide were up 22.2 % from a year ago last April. At the same time, the number of homes sold rose 38.2% and the number of home sales fell 48.3%.


When I walked into one of the country’s most famous national restaurants this morning to eat breakfast, the grand pancake plate now costs $11.88. The cost has doubled compared with last year. One of my home builder friends told me that the lumber prices have gone up three times with all other related items also skyrocketing in price. How can he build a house for sale without making profit? We saw a lot of white collar workers having to sleep in their cars because they cannot even lease an apartment in San Diego or San Francisco. This is such a big joke for us being the world’s richest country.


We are here to urge President Biden to take reasonable steps to negotiate tariff prices with our trading partners around the world, especially with China.


I remember many years ago when Senator Phil Graham said that we should feel very happy when we all walk into a Walmart store. We can get everything we want, but we have to remember that most of these products are made overseas, especially in China. When the U.S. raises tariffs, all the consumers will suffer.


Today we might be slowly getting out of the coronavirus pandemic, but we are facing more challenges in the future.


We urge President Biden to look at the bottom of our society. They are still suffering.
