The American dream is out of reach for more Americans than ever before. It is more difficult to get into the middle-class today then in a long time perhaps since the Great Depression.

40 years ago the average 25-year-old American made about $85,000 per year adjusted for inflation . Today the average 25-year-old in America makes about 45,000 per year.

This is of course the top concern in the country. It’s obvious the standard of living and the cost-of-living for we the American people. This is the most important thing.
Will the politicians make it the number one topic or will they could continue to try and divide us by a race/gender or foreign wars that have no effect on America?

Cost of living vs Wage stagnation. Demand outstripping the supply.
These issues go WAY back.

Why should they react? Minimum wage is $20/hr in many places. Maybe these renters should try taking care of themselves. The government isn't their mommy or daddy. I remember when Americans prided themselves on their ability to provide for themselves. SMFH.

 

[Lisa558]

When these young people are in the voting booth, which will be more critical to their decision:

1) I don’t like that there are some states that would make a woman who didn’t use birth control (99% of pregnancies are due to skipping the birth control) will have to take a bus to a neighboring state, which is very inconvenient, or….

2) I am totally stressed that I not only can’t put groceries on the table, but I am stuck in this small apartment with my spouse and baby because rents are so high.

The country is not as strong and dignified as It was 75 years ago. In large part, the media Hollywood and the government officials are to blame for feminizing men and For promoting filth and degradation…..including legalization of drugs….a lot of young people today are totally fine playing video games and smoking dope all day. A good chunk of them don’t even have the burger flipping jobs you’re talking about. If they have a job, they’re flipping burgers at McDonald’s. So they don’t have the drive or the types of figures to look up to they used to have even 50 years ago.

The CEO class was much better 75 years ago. They cared about not only enriching themselves which of course they did. But they also cared about building up a good healthy community.

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, what this country is missing is a sense of shame.

When I and friends first got out of college, we either shared a 2-bedroom or 3-bedroom apartment in an undesirable area, or rented a room in someone’s house. We ate cheap food at home. We would have been ASHAMED if we were still living with our parents at age 25. Yet I know people who have their kids still living with them at age 35, or else helping them pay for a really nice apartment.

The parents “excuse” their 30-year-old still living in their childhood bedroom as their not being used to have to live in a dumpy apartment because they grew up in a nice middle-class home, and they wouldn’t like it.

To that, I say…..tough shit! That’s pretty much what my parents said to me (in much nicer terms) when I complained that the low-rent apartment I could afford was unappealing. They said that THEIR first apartment was unappealing as well (and back then, no AC either), and that with time, and if I worked hard and was valuable, I’d earn more money and move up, just as they did.

Unless you have a disabled child, all kids should be out of the house by age 22 or 23.

The only thing that Trump cares about is acquiring power and locking up Democrats. He will do nothing about the loser renters because he doesn’t care about anyone who isn’t a billionaire like him.

 

[Natural Citizen]

I'm rather confident that they're both fully dedicated to a continuation of the same central economic planning by a central bank that brought on the conundrum in the first place.

As such, purchasing power will continue to erode, much the same as it has for several administrations.

There's not really a nickel's worth of meaningful difference between em in that regard.

 

[IDIOCRACY]

First, understand all leading Democrats are from California. Your State is next, especially if Kamala wins.

Second, there's a major replacement taking place in Ca. It's going to be Asian money, continued progressive reduction in standard of living and happiness. and of course "only Mexicans will do the work". Your State is next, especially if Kamala wins.

More to the point, welcome to New America, quasi-communism, and your landlord will be Asian. I've told my kids that for at least a decade, and it's coming to light for sure. My position is save every fucking dime you can, buy a house, I don't give a fuck what the interest rates are, make it happen, financially, or you're fucked.

For a surprising number of single women it's #1.

Filipino Americans, Indian Americans, and Bangladeshi Americans who immigrated legally to the USA have a hard work ethic. Perhaps it is similar to the work ethic of Italian, Irish Americans from back in the day. for example, Bangladeshes often pool a lot of money together here in the Buffalo area and they buy a bunch of homes and yes they are the landlords to a lot of white and black Americans in the area.

I believe the top income earners in the USA by demographic are Filipino Americans. Perhaps part of the reason is because a large percentage of young white and black Americans are into video games, porn, marijuana use all the time. Now the American population black and white was not like this even 40 years ago certainly not like that 75 years ago. There was more of an emphasis on community values and building up a family.


Part of the problem imo is modern politicians emphasize the wrong things and they often attack community values, going to church, they say don’t have a kid just get a dog. They are pro legalization of dope.

Part of the problem as you point out is the illegal immigration problem in America today.



Interestingly enough, I plan on going back to Cambodia or Thailand long-term this winter. As a young white man, it is a wonderful place. The women are incredibly beautiful. I have nothing against American woman. They’re fine. Also, for $1000 a month in Cambodia or Thailand I can get an incredible condo. It would cost five times as much in America. Hell for $150 I can get an apartment in Cambodia or Thailand. And the food is healthier in Southeast Asia. There is no left fanaticism there. There is no crime or filth in their public areas or malls.

More Americans than ever have got a passport in the past few years. And a lot of them are leaving America long-term. Maybe they’re working mobile and living in a country with better lifestyle and less left-wing fanaticism.

To your point, I certainly agree that left-wing Democrats are to blame in significant part for the downfall of the American middle class. Whereas during the day and age of my dad or grandfather, the Democrats were people like John F. Kennedy or Republicans like Eisenhower, who believe in the middle class. Eisenhower brought us the interstate Thruway. I rarely ever hear modern day Democrats talk about national healthcare, better jobs, seems it’s all about race or gender nonsense.

That's because our society is being terraformed.

We're being pushed into gradually living in higher density and smaller areas. That's the ultimate money making goal of investors, push everyone into small areas where they endlessly give you money so you can buy up the land that they abandon. The middle class and poor live in small areas so the rich can own the most of the land for themselves, or turn into more investments.

In 2023 apartment building was at a 36 year high with this year to exceed even that.

New Apartment Supply Set to Hit Another Record in 2024

While U.S. apartment supply volumes hit a record in 2023, the number set to complete in 2024 is even more.

www.realpage.com

There’s a Building Boom, but It’s Not for Everyone

By the end of 2023, more than 1.2 million new rental apartments will have been built in the U.S. since 2020.

www.nytimes.com

Even big wall street companies have been buying huge amounts of houses to turn into rental properties.

Wall Street has purchased hundreds of thousands of single-family homes since the Great Recession. Here's what that means for rental prices

Corporations backed by private equity groups such as Blackstone and Pretium Partners bought tens of thousands of homes across the U.S. Sun Belt.

www.cnbc.com

We're heading to a society where a lot of Americans, I mean a lot, do not own their home. They will be perpetual rent payers spending decades paying for something they can't own. They don't make much money and are irresponsible so they have no credit so no one gives them a loan so they end up paying more for rent than they would on a mortgage payment, they are stuck in a endless cycle of always only having enough for rent.

Which is also good for those in charge. You cram people together, they can't travel much or go far, you put McDonald's and Walmart 3 minutes away, give them internet, and keep things where 65% of Americans can't get ahead and you make them stupid. They are easy to manipulate and control.

America used to be the land where all you had to do was work hard and be a decent person and you could afford a little land, a house, a new car every 10 years, a vacation once a year, have plenty of food and retire. Any average guy could do that. It was all due to American values, morals, standards and pride.

Now? We're becoming renters, dummies, lazy, complacent, with drawn, angry and can't afford much of anything for a large part of Americans because our society is going to shit.

And this renting trend will continue as we can continue to raise weak, soft, immature, pussy ass bitch young people that want a living wage pouring coffee at Starbucks. Their weakness will doom this country because as they become the majority of workers and spenders in America corporate America is going to conform to them which means our society will be based around them.
