I'm a millennial and all I can say is I'll squat in one of those empty houses before I accept this.
Damn straight. Even my boomer home-owning parents called me up to tell me it’s cheaper to rent than buy right now, and frankly, fuck that. Renting is still basically like cutting my paycheck in half and throwing it out my single-pane poorly-insulated window. Sure, I get a shitty roof over my head, but that’s it.
Aren’t most of those empty houses in Detroit?
