    Hey pompous asshole. Who is going to work at grocery stores if you can’t afford living anywhere but a suburb and can’t even afford that.

    Who will work restaurants and small venues. Not every job can be remote and commuting long distances for “low wage” jobs which don’t cover the cost means no one servicing everything else you do besides work.

    You are thinking about only people like yourself and ignoring all the people I guess you don’t even consider thinking about.

      Hey pompous asshole.

      Screw you. I’m only speaking to truth, things I’ve done myself. Things that I’ve actually DONE myself.

      Who will work restaurants and small venues. Not every job can be remote and commuting long distances for “low wage” jobs which don’t cover the cost means no one servicing everything else you do besides work.

      In the city I live in they have a trolley/bus system that people who can’t afford to live in the expensive areas take to get to/from work.

      You going to tell me that the majority of low-income workers live in a city without metro?

      You are thinking about only people like yourself and ignoring all the people I guess you don’t even consider thinking about.

      If that was true I wouldn’t bother making comments and responding to people like you on the Internet. There’s no joy in it. Just trying to contribute to society by speaking to the truth of things. I ain’t fighting for my soul, I’m fighting for yours.

      Also, don’t get pissed at me for stating the rules of Capitalism, I didn’t invent the fucker nor do I support it (much). I’m just stating things you can do today to improve your life under the current system we all live in.

      Don’t like that, start a Revolution, or run for Congress.

      God finding out I pay twice as much a month for a shitty apartment than what someone I know does for a mansion out in the suburbs which keeps me from ever being actually able to get enough money saved to put a down payment (that is constantly rising higher) to even hope to get a house so that I’m not paying whatever someone feels like charging me for necessity housing…

      Yeah that shit is crushing.
