I wonder if that woman realizes that the reason she has to pay so much in rent is because the Government Triple dips into landlords. They tax the money you pay them for living in their house as Income, even after taxing you Income tax. And then they double tax the house for being a rental property. And if the landlord doesn't pay the taxes, the government steals the land and then sells it off and you get evicted unilaterally.

[@3eve0n]

not to mention all the zoning laws and other bs that make getting the property there in the first place a pain in the ass.

[@sarasunshinemt4444]

Yup. And every increase in property values means an increase in property TAXES, which ALSO means an increase in insurance rates for the home, which the landlord also has to pay. And then in order to still break even, much less turn a profit (not to mention putting at least 25% of the rent you pay towards property upkeep funds) the landlord has to increase rent.

[@pyrogon7566]

True but I still don't feel bad for them.

[@benballard5930]

The counterargument there is: then don’t be a landlord. It’s not necessary to have landlords at all because people could just buy the property instead of renting it. Most people can’t afford a housing unit now, but if an owner’s only option was to sell, they’d be forced to lower prices to something affordable in order to get a buyer; that’s how supply and demand works. Even if you have people who are making so little they never have than a few hundred dollars in their account, those people could get a loan at a high interest rate and still pay a similar amount as rent, without requiring a landlord to be involved

"Just because some adults make choices they regret doesn't mean we should take choices away from others." I agree with you to that point Dev, but my issue with the entire transgender game is in the implications on me as a normal person. If it's my policy to affirm all trans people then I'm linguistically warping my view of reality. I've always believed men and women are relevantly different. Sure technology alleviates some of those differences (although androgynous humanity is an aspect of dystopia) and that's probably a good thing. But when it comes to hormone dependency and cosmetic surgery, I simply can't lie about supporting a practice that I see is ultimately harmful to anyone. For the same reason I wouldn't support a dysphoric bodybuilder in taking steroids or an anorexic in losing more weight. To me there is no difference between these conditions apart from social acceptance.

[@MikeHunt-zy3cn]

[@aguyyouneverknew]

Also, more importantly, it completely misses the fact that the issue is that it's policy at a lot of medical institutions to immediately push people into transitioning over the smallest thing.

You don't need to want something to be illegal in order to believe that the way that it's being handled is absolutely horrific.

In other words, this "grown adult" who cannot deal with the weight of her decisions, was not actually functioning in an adult capacity in the pertinent areas of her life at any step of this process, else this process would have most likely been cancelled or would have definitely proceeded differently. And that's why the patient is acting the way she is. She has deep seated issues that have been avoided by those who should have been helping her with it because people think the process they are going through is going to cure her of these issues, so I don't she was behaving as a rational agent when she made her own decisions. I have more I could say on this topic, but a KZbin comments section isn't the place for such a discussion, and my honest and complete opinion would definitely come off as Transphobic to the uneducated or the moderation bots. I think you're take is bad on this one Dev. I understand where you're coming from, from a principled standpoint, but I don't think the situation is as free and honest as you frame it.

I knew a guy who bought more than one, placed them next to each other, and knocked out some of the connecting walls.

[@MrGrumblier]

@@ALovelyBunchOfDragonballz What changed was taxes on the wealthy and corporations plus the growth of labour unions. With the loss of tax revenue, the governments cut subsidies and shifted the burden of things like higher education and healthcare from the wealthy to the middle class. Labour unions run up costs so that a car that has only a few hundred dollars worth of materials in it has 20 or 30 times that in labour costs. The government used to subsidize housing projects but now it is a investment commodity. The main thing, however, is the unsustainable economic priority for ever higher profits. It is no longer enough for a corporation to be profitable. They must show greater profits from one quarter to the next. This is not sustainable and collapse is inevitable. If the profits were 1% higher in Q2 than Q1, then they need to be 2% higher in Q3. This can only be achieved through self-immolation.

[@voskresenie-]

"Most of us can't just pick up a new hobby because we have to save up for the materials" Yes, that's a good thing. Some of the best hobbies I have, I would have given up within 3 months if I hadn't dropped a bunch of money on the stuff I needed, and at that point I was invested. You know the paradox of choice? That doesn't just apply to netflix and cereal, that happens with everything. If you can switch hobbies every week with no consequences, you _will_ be less happy, and you will never get good at any of your hobbies. But these people lack the dedication to shower daily, they definitely can't stick with a hobby for more than a month even with the financial commitment involved, so I guess it's the same result for them either way. If you want to be happy, pick a small number of things and put everything you have into them, even when you don't feel like it. This applies to hobbies, relationships, and most other big decisions in life.
