    "So they haven't really saved, they've spent their paper gain."

    That is a completely different story.

    "You cannot force a person to save. A mortgage is not a forced saving."

    No it is not forced saving - it is a choice. Better to own a house after 20 to 30 years than to have nothing. As such it is a sort of saving for the future.
