New narrative - people are fleeing blue cities because there isn't enough housing

[OKTexas]

Evil blue states are too popular, unlike MAGA shotholes.

Yeah, that's why they're losing congressional seats and trying to increase their populations with illegals.

[OKTexas]

What am I missing out on? Tell me.

You're the one that dumped this big laundry list of available activities that you're obviously not participating in if you're posting here. BTW I have everything you listed within an hours drive or less.

If I had to drive an hour to do anything I listed, I’d do it a lot less. That’s just reality.

What am I missing out on?

Evidently everything you listed.

If that’s the best you can do, apparently your community really isn’t that great.

 

[OKTexas]

Yet I'm very happy with it.

Yet I'm very happy with it.

For some reason.

Housing in big cities has been a problem for a long time. You’re out of touch.

I lived in Dallas and Austin TX for 25 years and never had trouble finding a house or an apartment to rent.

You're in denial that there are too many illegal aliens in this country, and they're using up all the available housing.

I refused to live in the suburbs. The land of malls and a car for everyone. I live in a small town where I can walk everywhere, in 15 minutes or less.

You can walk Everywhere? but to work and now on the GOVT dole probably? Got to be pretty lucky to get a real job with survivable level wages in a small town walkable in Canada winters. Splain that Lucy.

Everywhere but work on the GOVT dole probably. Got to be pretty lucky to get a real job in a small town walkable in Canada winters. Splain that Lucy.

I retired to a lovely lakeshore resort community, in 2016 after a 30 year career on Bay Street working for some of the biggest law firms in Canada. Nice salaries, spring and fall bonuses, matching contributions to retirement accounts, membership in the Mayfair Club.

I'm not lucky. I'm one of the hardest working people you've ever met, and I was one of the few law clerks whose computer skills matched their legal skills. Professionally, I could write my own ticket, and was never out of work.

I know you right wing losers have difficulty comprehending that leftists are hard working, resourceful and highly employable, but all of the leftist nations are thriving, while you're flailing.

No, it doesn’t. The country may produce food, but that’s not a subsidy. The city pays them fair market value. If anything, farming is receives significant government subsidies which come from taxpayer dollars that predominantly come from the city dwellers.

Then stop paying ... grow your own food ... stop electing representatives who are so easily fooled ... or as easily bribed ...

Our goal was to end hunger ... in the cities ... country folk can grow their own food ... city folk can't say that ... city folk are dependent on country folk, not the other way around ... end the subsidies, see where the food riots erupt ...

Not sure what you’re getting at here. If farmers didn’t want money for their products, why do they sell them?

Got it. NOW you walk after only 30 years working. Try working 50-60 years like Americans.

So in other words you're a retired ambulance-chaser who now lives in an old folk's home.

Watch out for those Canadian assisted-suicide vans creeping around your neighborhood. Ya better hope they haven't drawn your number, you old fartblossom.

Democrats have millions of illegals competing with Americans for housing.
That's simply wrong.

Keep them NASTY Democrats away from my state!

Austin has a legitimate availability problem. It was particularly bad up to last year. Its normal when cities convert from being small to being big - and the three counties are now over 1MM. It will take time to catch up.

They are coming to your state, eating your cheetoes and rubbing cheeto dust on your cars!

The 'blue cities' are dying due to their idiot prog doctrines biting them in the a**

~S~

I remember Bay street. Its the Canadian version of Wall Street in the Canadian version of New York (Toronto).

there has been a housing shortage for over a decade
