It's almost like we have no money and don't have a choice because having ridiculous luxury items like FOOD, requires you know, money.

It's not that difficult! Just borrow a few millions from your parents, and become CEO of your own company.

Cost of rent is such a con. It continues to rise and been proven to be manipulated by software (RealPage). Then shrinkflation.. and inflation.. cost of energy. Cost of insurance. Literally everything. EXCEPT the one thing which SHOULD go up: wages.

But hey, corporations can just bake bread and be exempt from minimum wage increases; California and Panera, though they got in so much hot water it was backtracked… but holy fuck that’s the shitty weasel way of corps.

Don't you just love rent/housing? Oh, sorry you don't make enough money to qualify for a mortgage. But hey you can pay $1,500/month+ to pay your landlord's mortgage!

Housing is a human right. Housing for all!
