“she dont “get it” anyone and everyone who thinks walmart should pay enough to buy a house, raise a family, pay an adults bills.“
Retail jobs have used to do all this. That’s how far we’ve fallen.
back in 1960.
The job I had was low wage, no better than Walmart, but I bought a house with it. It just took some detective work at the tax office and some negotiation with the owner.
The key is basically to go where houses are cheap, and don't break the budget on nonsense, luxuries, and bad habits.
There are plenty of places in the US where this is still possible, but people tend to box themselves in to where they were born and raised, where their relatives are, etc. They don't shop for housing the way they would shop for a used car -- sensibly, with an eye for utility and low maintenance. Look for a car in good shape with an elderly owner ready to let go of it, and don't think it's the only car you'll ever have -- look for a house pretty much the same way.
