Rent they said. It’s cheaper they said.

I'll never understand the mentality of people who try to make renting over owning seem like a smart decision.

...something something "not having to pay property taxes".
...something something "not having to pay for repairs".
:mjlol:

Like landlords are out here eating these costs just so someone can stay in their home at a financial loss.

If your solution is go buy a house, you know very little about what's going on in the average american life. People who can't afford a home, and earn shytty wages need to be able to live somewhere. If worst comes to worst, them landlords gonna be on milk cartons.

There is plenty of housing available, I Hate turning this into strictly a supply and demand issue. The problem is companies decided single family housing was the next big asset class and decided to monopolize the market
This issue is artificial, and speaks to a bigger issue that's always existed in america; the rich uses their money to bully and leverage better circumstances for themselves.

I think young people will adjust by continuing to shack up even more and more with each other, both to escape housing and an unfavorable job market, doing the bare minimum to get by. I don't think people realize how apathetic younger millennials and Gen Z are, they don't give a fukk. The US is facing a unique problem; for the first time ever, upward mobility for most is coming to a standstill, and people are just checking out, because they don't have hope or aspirations anymore.People have gotten priced gouged to their limit and said fukk it.

It's weird, I've been through worse in my life, I Remember coming out of my house and seeing Crack vials and blue and red tops scattered on the ground, seen family shot at, friends killed, etc, but while the issue with the economy doesn't seem "worse", it feels bigger. It's also incredibly unique, I know housing is largely an issue of supply and demand, but it feels like the bubble is still gonna pop because of unprecedented factors.

Basically. The amount of people my age I know who have a house is very small. Its simply more feasible rent out a house or apartment and split costs. The entry to get a house nowadays is extremely prohibitive due to competition, banks approval, and the large lumpsum you need to even get it in the door. IDK whats going to happen but apathy is the perfect word.

We should be fukking rioting. I don't understand why everyone goes along with this bullshyt
People on social media still calling broke boys broke boys though. Arguing over paying for restaurant food and all that. I don’t expect rioting at all. People are still living like it’s normal out here.
