I think it's funny that you think less college debt boils down to finding a "cheap" place to live with the current astronomical prices, going out to eat too much, and that people don't have roommates. I'll give you that those 18 to, say, 24 probably don't have the best budgeting skills. But this comment comes across like those people telling to stop buying Starbucks and avocado toast.

Wow, that's really eye opening in relation to my in-laws. You just put it all in perspective.
Wow, you're selfish.
I really don't think that's a good metric given that the average house cost in San Francisco is 1.12 million dollars. Someone making $250,000 a year isn't affording that house any more than someone making $54,000. They're both priced out. That's the point everyone else is making. That and the new idea what anyone working for a living is not upper class.
Do you have a source for all of this?
prohibit sitting on apartments to raise rent - prohibit leaving apartments empty to keep rent high
Limiting air bnbs - keep housing for permanent resident rather than short term rent
You don't need to keep a short term rental to not limit housing. Otherwise hotel rooms that can be upwards of $300 would count as houses.
We should financially apologize for the atrocities and lift people up like you suggest, but that's not what gentrification means. The other commenter was right. Gentrification means upgrading an area and displacing those who live there.
gentrification jĕn″trə-fĭ-kā′shən noun
-
The restoration and upgrading of deteriorated urban property by middle-class or affluent people, often resulting in displacement of lower-income people.
-
The process of renewal and rebuilding accompanying the influx of middle class or affluent people into deteriorating areas that often displaces earlier usually poorer residents.
-
The restoration of run-down urban areas by the middle class (resulting in the displacement of low-income residents).
I'll never understand this. Do they seriously not think teens don't know about sex without reading it in a book?
Show him to use a pen. Seriously, what the absolute fuck.
Sounds about right. Everything is too damn expensive. If my husband wasn't in a lucrative industry, software dev, there's no way we would have been about to afford a house.
True, but honestly really sad. I doubt the majority of these students asked for this.
Except they're not anymore now that Republicans are trying to enact their forced birth laws everywhere.
