  You’re part of the problem that increases the disparity in wealth, yet you have the audacity to attack people who criticize you for it.

  You’re entitled. You’re greedy. You’re a proud consumer. Instead of getting mad at me for point out these facts, you should start to value different things so you’re no longer part of the problem.

  You accuse me of not seeing nuance, but turn around and do the same yourself.

  I bet that sounded nice in your head, but it doesn’t really hold any relevance here.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Council housing when?⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  See, that’s the problem. You people think it’s all-or-nothing.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Council housing when?⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Have you heard of supply and demand?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Council housing when?⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I keep telling my friends rent is going up every 2 years.

  Looks like it’s about that time.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Council housing when?⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Would you be willing to do it in a town of 3,000 people?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Council housing when?⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  The thing that pisses me off is that I’m not Asking to be able to afford a house. I already gave up on that a long time ago.

  Sigh. This is part of the problem. We need to value ownership more than renting.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Council housing when?⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  The core problem is consumerism. The idea that if you have more, then you should get more and spend more while complaining you don’t have enough.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Council housing when?⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Not necessarily true. There are powerful cultural forces at play that they’re not willing to acknowledge, yet alone overcome.

  We’re kind of in the same boat. We think that if we have more, then we deserve more before those who have less. That’s just what these people are doing, only they’re doing it way better than us.

  Property taxes also aren’t egregious if you don’t live in an expensive house in an expensive area.

  The problem is that most of ya’ll have been conditioned to think “that’s not good enough for you” even when you can’t afford more. Then entitlement kicks in where you think you deserve more before others who have less and before you know it, Bernie loses the nomination and we’re stuck with a trump presidency.

  Yea generally electronics is depreciated every 3 to 5 years.

  Not really.

  But I can imagine that after 3 years of children usage they are done for. That aside though

  It’d be cheaper to protect the devices with cases and screen protectors.
