Sure thing, renter.
It’s not really a burn when the economy was fucked up by the folks around before him. If the economy starts going to shit when you’re too young to participate then the previous generation probably did it. also boomers raised the shit bags they bitch about by handing out participation trophies and telling them how smart and special they are, good job. The parents of the baby boomers helped make this country great and the boomers started it down hill.

or we can just keep ignoring how things happened lol

1970: Median home was $24,000
1980: 55,000
1990:79,000

People who were children at the time definitely caused that to start.

Hell I did the same thing , but I flew over a car and landed on asphalt when I was 15.
Don’t remember much about it though. T-boned a Galaxy 500 in the passenger door.🥴 Driver didn’t know they had installed a traffic light at a intersection. I knew , and my light was Green !Buried a Triumph 650 Bonneville into the door. Took a wrecker to pull it out I heard. 😖
Sandhog bout didn’t make it to being a 16 year old that day.

Okay, let’s use your faulty logic then

1940: median home was $2,938
1950: $7,354
1960: $11,900

Keep blaming those before you for your problems. Sounds about right.

The median price for a home today in the USA is $386k

The income required to get a mortgage is $140k, while the median income is $70k.

The American dream of owning a home is out of touch for most people.

If the rate of inflation between 1940 and 1950 continued to now - a median home would cost over $3 million.
If the rate of inflation between 1950 and 1960 continued to now - a median home would only cost $202K.
Our government printing money out of thin air has absolutely destroyed any chances of median income people buying median cost homes.

Its only going to get worse. Brics will further devalue the dollar. Yet, the swamp keeps spending more billions
everyday. The planned collapse is coming faster and faster. Its not one age group vs another. Its the average American vs the political class elite and their donor class masters! We are not being represented by our. So called elected representatives. Haven't been for many decades.

This begs the question: Which iconic Clint Eastwood character do you want to kill you?

Detective Harry Callahan
Walt Kowalski (Gran Torino)
The Stranger (High Plains Drifter)
The Man with No Name (The Dollars Trilogy)
Frankie Dunn (Million Dollar Baby)
Private Kelly (Kelly’s Heroes)
William Munny (Unforgiven)
Josey Wales
John Doherty/Thunderbolt

If it's Walt Kowalski, do you want the 1911 or the Garand?

You left out Bronco Billy, he could sing you to death. Wouldn't take very long either.

But the economy is great. My .gov and my .news keeps telling me so every day.

<chain.gif>
62% of Americans live paycheck to paycheck.
Prices increased 13.8 percent from January 2021 to October 2022, costing the average American household $747 last month alone. Even if prices stop increasing altogether, the inflation that has already occurred will cost the average American household $8,963 over the next 12 months. You can thank Biden for that!

My favorite part of "ENDURANCE" the story about the failed south pole expedition Shackleton was on, detailed how the group left behind on the island were in dire straights during the middle of winter. They were depressed and were talking about how much food they were not going to see. They ate penguins. They bet that they would only see no more than 30 penguins the entire month, they would not see more then 10 penguins in a group, and they would not kill more than 3 penguins a day ( all numbers approximate, it's been a while). Then on the 3rd day of the month, to their surprise, they killed 128 penguins!

so you're agreeing with me that the generation before screws stuff up then the next continues to screw shit up. The boomers more so the ones who became hippies put this shit on the fast train.

Also we were talking boomers I was posting what y'all had control of, not the stuff before.

Yep pull your chair back , put your head between your legs and kiss your ass goodbye ! Us boomers were even sold dog tags in elementary school , legend was they wouldn’t melt till some god awful temps. Sure made me feel safer 🥴
Also in grammar school the FBI came and fingerprinted all the kids
Why?
We were told that if the Nuke killed all of us, we could be identified by fingerprints

Was I scammed??

And my point was that cherry picking a generation from the tree of government largesse and overspending to make a point is moot. Let’s look to those that manipulate the debt for their own enrichment and not pick out enemies amongst our own. 😉
