What about the guy that brought-up New England in the first place? Why are you giving him a pass?
Oh I thoroughly disagree w/ Ketsu’s statement that to live a middle class lifestyle in New England requires $100,000 annual income. I know many people who are solidly middle class in southern Maine (where I’m from) who earn quite a bit less.
But your statement “why does being a member of the middle class entitle people to live where they want (in your case, New England)” took that to a whole different level, implying you think it would be okay if the middle class couldn’t afford to live in the entire NE area.
I posted to you to find out if you were using hyperbole or if you are an elitist. Judging from your responses it was unintentional hyperbole, but you seem to have a hard time admitting it. No big thing. I’m also guessing “boy” is part of your screen name for a reason.
