I haven’t bought a house here yet because I work for banks and was commuting to the downtown area for work each day. I know several single women in this large apartment complex who almost all or all voted for Biden because Orange Man Bad and mean tweets or something.
Now the apartment complex raised rents anywhere from 25%-40% and they all vowed they would leave rather than renew. They’ve been shocked to discover its not just here, its everywhere. Rents and house prices have skyrocketed. So has gas. So have groceries. They can’t find several of the things they want to buy any more.
They’re hurting but none of them are ready to admit how badly they screwed up. When I take my dog to the dog park and they’re around I just casually observe that gosh, the rents weren’t that high a year ago. Gosh, things weren’t out of stock a year ago. Gosh, gas and groceries weren’t so expensive a year ago.......
They would vote the same anyway probably.
Brutal.
