While you're right that the first time home buyer incentive does make it easier to afford a house than a lot of people realize (I bought my first house in January 2020 with a $10k down payment, and was easily able to stay on top of mortgage payments with a $40k/year salary), this is a comic, and the real issues of high housing prices and property scarcity due to private corporation buyouts are being exaggerated for comedic effect.
