    I pay $500 a month for a 2 bedroom little house. Maybe $200 in utilities. I walk to work whenever it's nice outside but I'm still broke as fuck paying school loans, med bills, medication.

  3. In the second class of EC101 I took we learned that rent control always fails, actually. Because the supply/demand graph says so.

    They don't pay their worker a wage that corresponds to the cost of living in the area.

    Gotcha.

    I wonder what that would be for that area. I think they say rent is supposed to be no more than 30% of your take home earnings.

    The one bedroom apartments I've been looking at are the same cost as the five bedroom house my girlfriend's family lives in
     
  9. A cost of living that they have had a massive part in inflating to insane levels

    There are so many variables with rent and certain areas / parts of states.

    Like, my rent includes cable & internet, heat, underground heated parking labeled parking spot (so no parking fee like some cities have) so while the amount I pay looks high, if I lived elsewhere and added that stuff in after it could be even more.

    However there are houses I could buy / rent that would be cheaper but those are bare bones with all utilities being extra and (if I bought) then having to do and buy equipment for yard work / snow removal.

    Paying for housing in general, or after a certain amount of time, is just infuriating.

    I guess I'm not surprised johnny rotten is a right winger considering pil played shows behind a curtain/screen and didn't understand why people were mad

    It's only a matter of time before Trump realizes that war plays very well for his TV ratings.

    He's well aware. I'm sure sooner or later we'll get a "stay tuned for my decision on whether or not we invade N. Korea, Tuesday 9pm"

    My guess is it will occur right before NFL season kickoff. Live announcement in all of the stadiums.
