Fuck, thats ridiculous and shouldn't be happening! But apparently everyone needs there $900000 house with zero yard, crammed in next to their neighbours that they have to take 40 year mortgages and work 12 hours day to afford.

what's the best way to warm up your wetsuit in the winter?

It's an easy fix, start windsurfing, don't worry, It'll now be spread between kiters and wingsnurfers.
