      All the people at the top now either started rich or started in a time where companies still had a lady going around offices bringing people coffee.

      I’m surprised cubicles have not been traded in for a treadmill to generate power yet.

      Meh. At least online there is a doomer mentality which turns into anger when you point out that a homes and a decent life are actually obtainable, followed by countless bootlicker comments.

              65% trailing the EU by 4%. Your metric is absurd 🤣 comparing a school test to home ownership historically. What an insane argument. Tell me you’ve never taken a statistics class with out saying the word 🤣.

                If you think 35% of people not being able to afford a home in a world of plenty is ok, then I think you have more to learn about than statistics

                  Point out where I said it is okay?

                  Maybe you shouldn’t be looking for an argument. 65% is the status quo. And it’s not like most of the renters are living homeless. Hence the doomerism.

                    You laughed in my face and called my viewpoint absurd while defending the status quo

                    If you think the status quo is acceptable then I’m not going to be the person to convince you otherwise
