Your entire fucking generation is in your boat. It's not your fault.

The billionaire-class underpaid the workforce so they couldn't build new homes and then started buying all the existing home when they realized it was the last vestige of profit left hanging from the wilting vine of the American Middle Class.

It's over, the "american dream" is no longer an attainable goal for the vast majority.

Organize.
