Is this why grandma has an OnlyFans?
That was serious funny right there.
So nobody gives a shit that the younger generations can’t afford a house, but it’s “unconscionable” when boomers can’t?
The young people who can’t BUY a house still have housing. This is about unhoused people who are in a decidedly worse position.
I don’t know what’s it’s like where you are, but there are definitely also a lot of young homeless people where I live. I don’t just mean house-less, I mean living in tents or worse.
It really sucks that so many people are suffering, and there isn’t even a good reason for it.
You can work your arse off day in, day out, only to get hit by someone driving drunk. Then, you get stuck on insufficient disability payments, even through you had no fault in what happened to you. Even if you manage get a decent court payout in a good country, you’re still probably looking at a lot of expenses accessibility-wise (ESPECIALLY if you live somewhere like the US.) A lot of that stuff isn’t cheap. Plus, you would have to try to make that payment last for the rest of your life. Food, bills, rent, clothing, and more would all still be costs you would have.
It sucks that so many people push back against any kind of support for these individuals. It really makes you wonder what they would do if they woke up with the shoe on the other foot.
the people complaining they can’t buy a house aren’t the unhoused crowd to begin with.
Live by the sword. Die by the sword I guess.
Well, they brought it on themselves.
No sympathy, not even a little.
When we can’t afford housing we’re told to get a second job, get a better job, stop buying things we can’t afford, eat only 2 meals a day, etc. When the reality is that we can’t afford housing because of the world they created, how they vote, and because they pulled up the ladder with them just before they told us to find our own way.
Well, those same policies and voting habits are finally biting them in the ass and we’re supposed to give a shit?
Nah, they’re attitude has always been “fuck you, got mine” well, fuck them too, they also got mine.Tarring an entire generation with the same brush is dumb as hell. It’s dumb when boomers whine about the young and it’s dumb when people try and pin the blame for this mess on literally everyone in a similar age group.
