In the process a major misallocation of capital resulting in oversupply and overvaluation of much real estate in bubble markets has been the end result.

Where else could the money go? Re is the lowest perceived risk asset that performs a direct practical function. Why shouldn't the public benefit from a rising market? You're trying to do that.

But the flip side is no real jobs are being created long term,

Are you saying that jobs would have been created if no RE boom had occurred?

locals can't afford them, there is a major shortage of affordable units for working people while the new overpriced units sit mostly empty.

You're complaining that the market doesn't perceive what you do. You should take advantage of this by investing in affordables or waiting for a price break in overpriced to buy.
Or maybe what you're doing is market minding = telling the market and people what they should be doing so they can be rich and smart like you.

On deflation and the differences versus Japan the USA has been trying to grow our way out via immigration and the availability of a ton of vacant land.

Is Japan exporting Japanese nationals to grab our open spaces?
