Maybe the solution is getting a job and getting focused. Nah, that would never work.
You’d be wrong. Watch his interview by Tucker. He disagrees with most of his mom’s platform.
This implies that Republicans are NOT paying attention which is a huge lie. I distrust this guy just like his evil mother
Nalin is not like his Mommy.
The rats and MSM are riding this affordability crap as a hammer and wedge.
How many boys grow up to say, “I wanna be like my momma”?
“Affordability” just means prices I don’t like. The free market has a better idea.
It’s an opinion, that’s all. Or a tactic.
Your life is what you make of it kid. Go help yourself instead of asking for a hand-up. The majority of people in this country never had that, but still made a living, and lived within their means. I’m a 78 year old woman who’s been divorced for 46 years. I never owned a home, although when my kids were little, I would have loved one so we wouldn’t have had to move so often, but I couldn’t afford the down payment, the mortgage, or the maintenance at the time. By the time I could afford a home, my sons were getting ready to leave the nest, so I didn’t need or want the responsibility of a home. And now that I’m old, I’m glad I never owned one.
It does seem like affordability is a new key word in our politics.
We need to be able to discuss the issue. As far as how it aligns in our politics, this can be used against Democrats.
For example, in talking about housing affordability, California probably has the least affordable housing in America. The state of California is run by Democrats.
New york City is dominated by Democrats. And is very expensive also. We can make the case that places run by Democrats tend to be more expensive to live in. There tend to be more laws and regulations which increase the cost of housing in these areas.
If Democrats want to have this debate, we have ammunition on our side to cope with this issue.
how do you know?
...and, furthermore, why do you accept his premise that we’re “ignoring” the younger generation?? That we’re not concerned about “affordability”?
I think his statements are totally disingenuous
Dumbassery is hereditary
Young voters need to realize the truth that what the Democrats offer is totalitarian authoritarian fascism — Red Fascism.
Don’t vote for Red Fascism because the last Red Fascist administration caused the pain you’re experiencing now during an anti-fascist administration.
New york City is dominated by Democrats. And is very expensive also. We can make the case that places run by Democrats tend to be more expensive to live in.
You're right about that. Also, it's all about the supply and demand.
Everyone wants to live in Malibu and Manhattan.
You'll have to pay a premium for that.
What do I think the message is? Politicians who want to keep the "Business As Usual" train running down the track aren't getting the traction they want. People of all ages want actual change in the process with better results, not more of the same.
Can we get to the root problem? A while ago a chart was posted on one of the FR threads showing federal and state spending as a percentage of GDP (1929 to 2019). Up until 1965. the total was about 25%, except for WW II. Since then it's gone up, with a number of 48.7% in 2019.
The difference was that in 1965, one income in a traditional nuclear family could provide a comfortable middle-class life. And when did we start to need DINK to make middle class? About the same time.
The message is clear; more government creates less affordable culture. Can we get government spending under control? So far, the politicians who promise change seem to win elections; at some point the voters need to demand results. Voting for a different politician next time is not paying off.
Well we complained about it plenty when Biden was President. Now all of a sudden we’re not supposed to talk about it.
The American People want the free stuff at the same time so the politicians are giving it to us.
Why do you call it BS? It is a concern that voters care about.
Wrong it is the new buzzword for wages are not keeping up with what things cost.
