Middle class RIP

[struggle]

My dad bought a house in Huntington Beach for $220k in 1995.

It’s now worth over a million.

It’s going to be one of the biggest real estate bubbles when it pops, there and San Fran/San Jose.

LOL - Federal Reserve 2% inflation target.

What cost $40,000 in 2003, now costs $80,000

And that’s if you trust the Government issued CPI

[dragnet2]

All that money for millions of illegals, millions of foreign nationals, over crowding, massive traffic, gangs, punitive leftist laws, over regulation, sky high taxes and crime...

A sucker born every minute...

[E. Pluribus Unum]

Not to worry.

Blackrock/China will buy it all up.

[38special]

It’s becoming that way everywhere

[rottndog]

I wonder why we never see a breakdown of that income, and how much of it goes to pay for the cost of government...

[rottndog]

BTW...I don’t believe this government funded study...the more it costs to live, the more the government will demand.

[bgill]

Do they count the $950 shoplifting thefts as income?

[faithhopecharity]

poverty is reportly $104,000 in parts of the SF/San Jose Bay area

[daniel1212]

See Welfare and growing dependency upon government. What determines income in Federal Poverty Guidelines (2022)?

You make $20/hr and that is just enough to pay for a 1 bedroom apartment with a little left over for food, maybe.
