The usefulness and existence of it very much depends on where in the state you’d be moving to

I just paid $10k to replace our A/C two years ago, "kiddo". No landlord required.
Are you going to explain how a landlords magically make housing cost less to maintain and somehow conjure up a profit in doing so?

Yeah but in fairness this single state’s population nearly doubles Norway’s population

THANK YOU. We need to call it both to be fair but yes this was assault. And all adults directly and indirectly involved who did NOT take action should be charged with failing to protect a minor. remove their paid leave, and take away their jobs and benefits. You allow kids to be abused and assaulted by their peers under your watch? You have a fucking responsibility to these kids and what a disgrace of an admin to let this all build up. They deserve the fullest and harshest punishments.

It’s one thing for individuals to do, problem is the investment groups that are buying up all the inventory. Could easily cap the amount of sfh’s one entity can own

Per Capita is the important metric here. Don't be obtuse.

In what world do you think rent is less expensive than a mortgage, taxes, and maintenance? Where is that money coming from, genius?

Kids are kids and they need more help than punishment. These kids have low emotional IQs. That can be helped and fixed in most cases. They deserve some punishment but these charges seem more like grandstanding than actual solutions, IMO. IMO they are the least responsible party because they are kids.
The school officials should be punished both legally and civilly. Some reports have stated that bullying had gone on for years. If they were aware then their negligence allowed for this. As the adults in charge of where some of this bullying took place they could have stopped some of it.
If the bullies' parents were aware (and if they weren't then it all falls on the school) then they should be charged too. Raise shitty kids and you should be responsible if there was something you could have done to correct their behavior. If someone told me my kid was a bully then we would go hard into therapy, anger management, conflict resolution, and I would monitor their online accounts until I could trust them to act right.

What about the principal who tried to victim blame? They still have a job?

Good! I hope they spare these subhuman, inhumane individuals no mercy at their sentencing

If you'd quit putting words in my mouth, maybe you'd stop and ask yourself what tangible benefit landlords provide compared to people who actually build and repair houses.

It helps to know your major destinations... Home & office. Beware residences close to transit will cost more. Know that NJT is trying to make bicycles a useful extension to your ride (but not every train is accommodating)
Spent yesterday on a train with a lifelong resident.. he had no clue how to read the departure board at a glance! The rail routes/ map/ schedules and departure boards are color coded.

Enough to cover the car in the driveway but not enough to go stock up on groceries.

I have no issue with apartments that are meant to be apartments. I understand that there will always be a segment of the population that benefits more from renting. The issue I have is when so called average people think that they can hoard property and use it for "passive" income. Those landlords do nothing of benefit for anyone.

Somewhat, but most of the transit is centered on getting people to and from Newark, New York City and Philadelphia vs. from one part of the state to another.

We're talking about housing here man. Basic human needs. If you want to make a profit selling hats or something, that's a different issue.
