How did this get to be a rant about teachers and public school? In the 70s, the average STARTER house cost 3.5 times yearly income. It's now up to over 5 times that. It's definitely different--even for those who have worked hard.

MAGAts love to rant about DEI so they work it into every conversation regardless of the OP topic.

Yes, housing cost is a major problem. Back in the day, a "starter home" was a two-bedroom, one bath. Too many houses are McMansions in the half million dollar range. A condo, duplex (rare too), or modular home is cheaper.

The sad fact is that the best paying jobs are also in the highest cost of living areas.

An odd phenomena after 9/11 was a trend by Yuppies (remember them?) taking demotions or lower paying jobs to move out of the city or suburbia and to smaller cities or rural areas. They realized working 60+ hour weeks chasing the Almighty Buck wasn't as important as spending more time with their families. Smaller cities and rural areas also come with lower costs.

Although Trump's war has increased those costs, smaller cities and rural areas still remain cheaper than the urban sprawl of a metroplex.

Best of luck to your kids and all other young people struggling in Trump's America.

Actually, it gave me a lot of fun. Normally I hate to go to battle with idiots, but you made it a lot of fun.

No doubt you relish spreading hate and lies. It's expected of White Christian Nationalists AKA faux Christians since they are inherently followers of Satan, not our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.

If you're making the case that the Democrats were disastrous for the economy, you'll get no opposition from me on that, trust me. But Trump said he could and would fix it, and it's getting worse, not better, for most people. And boy, people sure know where their money goes.

He's not a dictator, and believe it or not we're doing better than the rest of the world at the moment. A lot of what people want is not really in his job description, it's in Congress's though. American oil companies can start showing some patriotism and gratitude as well, but I seriously doubt they will; they're mostly spoiled brats themselves.

Trump is making bank on this. All he cares about is his own bank account, not those of "the little people".

Like his "Prosperity Christian" followers, his worship of mammon goes against Christ's word.

WAHHHHH!!!!!

Yes, indeed.

Yes, indeed.

Online MAGAts are often elderly and in dire need of a Waambulance.

It's one reason they want "daddy to come home".
