Liberals can’t wait until we’re all jammed into homes like that.

I don't understand why it has to be a "liberal thing" to live economically. As a young single adult, a place like that (provided it had hot water and electricity) would have been perfect for me instead of the ratty apartment I rented for myself before getting married.

Now that I'm getting into my older years and my kids have left the nest, I no longer need the sprawling 4-bedroom house with the five acres (and the taxes that go with it). So long as I have my creature comforts like a walk-in shower, high bandwidth internet and a serviceable kitchen (as well as a deck to park my grill), I would happily move to a much smaller place. Especially now that all my books, music, etc., are digitalized.

False summation !!!!

To live without freedom or dignity gets closer to the reality of the matter.

The whole question of travel trailers must not be that popular in Finland, or we have a case of an architect needing some free publicity.

A friend bought his Mother a 40’ trailer and moved it for about $8000 total to a park near Tulsa. Another $4000 for remodeling and Mom now has her own place that just costs her lot rent and a few taxes out of social security.

Newer trailers are nothing like I lived in back in the 60’s and 70’s. Still not a brick home but nice enough. Mom has her independence and Jr. visits her every week.

Lots of folks live in travel trailers moving around the country. Many churches have ministries where retired folks can drive across the country and help build churches and remodel orphanages. Our church sent a team of 26 to Alaska to help build out a church and plant. Very long drive from Texas, but also an affordable 4 month vacation.

Yeah, the more young people change the more they will end up like their parents, once they wise up.

I rent it out for $600 a month all utilities paid. utilities cost me about $75 a month. Thinking about building a few more, people love them.
