> Both Biden/Schumer/Manchin and Pubbies want to bring jobs back. <

You would think so. It would make sense. But I have my doubts.

At a town hall years ago someone asked Obama what he was going to do to bring manufacturing back to America. Those jobs are gone, Obama said, and they are not coming back.

Perhaps that’s the mindset of all our leaders these days. Keep us poor and dependent on government handouts.

I have bad credit. I bought a new sma 2 BR for 140k in Sandy Springs Ga in 2021. 1 Br are as low as 100k. Small. But why should the poor expect luxury? My small My small 2 BR is larger than my grandparents had with 11 kids

But what is not counted is that low wage earners are qualified for many benefits that are not counted as income.

Liberals are blind as to their economic and immigration and welfare policies. Spend, print and complain. It never ends.

You're right... and you're right that when it does end it'll be ugly.

The end will be our economic collapse like 1929 with coordinated UN and Chinese troops attacking us. I would think even our own brainwashed troops would go after Patriots as they believe the woke agenda. Gray State-type stuff. I just hope I’m in a box before it all happens.

So two different posters on this thread stated that their son/myself paid for college while working part time during the year and also full time in the summer.

It can be done.

That’s a gift! Take good care of it!

Where I live there is nothing even close to that price!

Best of luck to you!

Just have to know what to compromise. I was cheap landlord in Chitwn. 90pct of illegals knew how to look for cheap. Under 10 pct of those born a mile away knew how to look for cheap. They blamed the system.
