Oh, now that you post that graphic I understand. Home prices going up made this rich kid shoot a health insurance CEO.

You might be retarded.

That’s one of those “get in the federal government or college administration and you’re golden” kind of jobs. Also, sorry for calling you an a-hole, you were right, median income has steadily risen besides for, obviously, after the recession in 2008. I just think there’s a solution in the middle to this that isn’t just “tough luck” and “we need the government to wipe our asses.”

I don’t think the government should wipe our arse. I believe you he government should protect its working class. The government allows businesses to treat American as a piggy bank and the world as a supplier, how does that Benefit the people or country?

These have to be two of the top 5 excuses for being underwhelming.

Sounds more like an issue of monetary policy in the 70’s or before and isn’t a recent issue. Yeah, there was a drastic increase after 2020, but you similar drastic increases followed by corrections of similar proportion elsewhere in the graph.

I feel like I have to make this point in every discussion about home prices.
Comparing median home prices in 1970 (when the average size of a new home was 1500 sf) to today (when the average size of a new home is greater than 2500 sf) is ridiculous.

It doesn’t, I agree, but you need to know your audience. A lot of conservatives are individualists who are going to see these issues as the fault of your average person not being responsible, which I get. Nothing pisses me off more than the people around me going into six-digit credit card debt to support their lifestyle while I bust my arse off doing things on a budget with no credit cards.
My point is, you can’t frame this as a problem of not having enough government protections in place and not expect to get extreme push back. Our institutions and politicians need to quit letting this stuff get out of control… but people need to quit being financially illiterate and think for themselves every once in a while.

Cons have evolved a lot but have to understand due to government inaction of letting things get this bad warrants action. We can’t keep sitting by and let the current system remain of hands off. It has failed and we all have suffered from it.

Yeah, I don’t know how it gets fixed, but we really do have a country that is hell bent on excesses. We love to point fingers at the government not doing enough, but we don’t realize it starts with us. We do things because we think we have to. You have to go to college to get ahead in life, you have to go on expensive vacations to really enjoy life, you have to have all of these things checked off to find fulfillment. Your job? That’s nothing. You’ll never find fulfillment there, and if you do, there’s something “wrong” with you. I get that there is a lot for people, especially younger people, to be resentful over in society, but this “woe is me” shite is really getting old. No one really wants to take the time and effort to change things, they just want it done and are perfectly fine with just complaining about it in the mean time.
I kind of went off on a tangent, but this shooting and the response has really made me understand just how insane we’re getting with this mindset. Cheering on the murder of a CEO, treating it like some act of courage. This lunatic thinking that killing a father is going to bring change. Where’s the humanity in that?

I’m saying that young man should have been married with kids and going to church every Sunday instead of looking for CEOs to shoot, but you boomers spawned a generation of women who rejected tradition, and society cannot function with women running around like whores.
Blame whoever you want. Y’all killed tradition by embracing the pill and no-fault divorce. I’m not saying any succeeding generation would have made better choices in the circumstances, but I am saying yall are the ones that let it slip away. Don’t want the blame for that? Fine, but don’t pretend that you would have been different than millennials are. Y’all have always lacked introspection. Time to grow up, grandpa, and see things as they are.
