They’re just full of hypocrisy.

It’s very clear. They didn’t mean home as to mean any residence ever. They meant single family dwellings. I’m very confused as to how you didn’t understand this.
Oh. Oh, this is stupid. That’s why there’s so many considered vacant.
The Census Bureau considers any home unoccupied on April 1 — census day — to be “vacant,”

I really don’t think that’s a good metric given that the average house cost in San Francisco is 1.12 million dollars. Someone making $250,000 a year isn’t affording that house any more than someone making $54,000. They’re both priced out. That’s the point everyone else is making. That and the new idea what anyone working for a living is not upper class.
Do you have a source for all of this?
We should financially apologize for the atrocities and lift people up like you suggest, but that’s not what gentrification means. The other commenter was right. Gentrification means upgrading an area and displacing those who live there.
gentrification jĕn″trə-fĭ-kā′shən noun
The restoration and upgrading of deteriorated urban property by middle-class or affluent people, often resulting in displacement of lower-income people.
The process of renewal and rebuilding accompanying the influx of middle class or affluent people into deteriorating areas that often displaces earlier usually poorer residents.
The restoration of run-down urban areas by the middle class (resulting in the displacement of low-income residents).
Or AFAB which is what most people use.
No… Not to my understanding. Inflation, while an average, is not equally rising across all things. It is possible for the few that control food to raise prices together. Same with clothing and other industries. I think it’s also exacerbated by the shipping fiasco during covid and the fact that corporations always want more profit. As a general rule, any time prices rise for any reason, and shipping can make everything rise together, if people still pay that price, it will not be lowered.
Seems like you have a sweet deal somewhere. I can’t remember when I last saw spaghetti sauce that cheap and my chicken is 4.59 a pound.
Just gonna leave these links here.

It’s a little funny, but it’s better to crowd source a society and pay for things up front than it is to have every single thing be a toll. Could you imagine fire fighters verifying your credit card before they come out?
Or if you know, having greener spaces and roads underground are actually better for climate change. I’m not sure if this would help in that matter or not, but I think it’s a possibility. Not everything is about our made up concept of money.
Couldn’t have said it better.
Interesting that the Medicare has a note that the amount includes offsetting receipts like premiums.
I would argue average taxpayers don’t know it exists and a ton of them, particularly older ones have a very hard time with technology. I’ve had to show my mother in law how to get a url from her phone to her desk top, I’ve explained what the read mode means in Firefox, and numerous other things. Easy for you doesn’t mean easy for everyone.
Pretty sure they aren’t upset at the government not turning a profit or taking care of people.
social security is still a SELF-FUNDING program
[Insolvency is] what happens when you detach expenditures from taxes.
So while boomers are simultaneously enjoying low taxes and reaping the benefits of social security, the fund will run out of money before it can have any chance of paying out for millennials.
It’s not like the social security taxes I’m paying now are being “set aside” for me
They weren’t smug at all. They suggested you not be hostile. It’s not a crazy idea.
Yeah, the reaction is pretty extreme and makes me sad that it seems like therapy didn’t help them through it.
To obtain asylum through the affirmative asylum process you must be physically present in the United States. You may apply for asylum regardless of how you arrived in the United States or your current immigration status.
