Yes it does

I can't afford to live where I was born and raised. That happens

I can't afford to live some places. I acknowledge that and live where I can afford.

That

Oh to be young and naive.

You're advocating for violence to get things we already have?

Yes, Opec artificially inflates prices. What does that have to do with the Netherlands? Industrialized society is build on fossil fuels and you can't just replace them right away. Especially with the extremely high start up cost for renewables

Because the economy would collapse if it didn't. It's not as simple as just getting rid of oil.

Are you gonna make a pie with all those cherries you picked?

So does something possible

It does.

Lol. Get over yourself

Seriously. People have no idea how most of the world is. It's not just maybe paying an extra 5 bucks a month for heating

So, that means for a pretty extended period of time, energy prices will go way up. Most of the world cannot afford that

Only teenagers and unemployed people think disrupting normal people trying to make a living is a good way to protest

Are you new here?

Haven't been following the Middle East for long, have you?

Get outside of my bubble? Projecting much?

I don't live in Midtown. What are you even talking about?

Average rent is such a misleading number. Not everyone is entitled to live in Midtown. I don't, I live in an outer borough because I can afford it. Does your average account for standard deviation?

Dude, not everyone who disagrees with you is a bootlicker. Learn how to respond to people. Immediately assuming what I want makes for a bad argument. More cops seemed to reduce crime on subways

There's no winning with people like you. Getting rid of overtime means hiring more cops, which I'm sure you wouldn't like either.

This is a really good point, and you've definitely done your research. I think numbers like this, though, might give commuters some relief. People who take the subway daily, regardless of the month

So what's the issue? My antidotal evidence is better than your lack of evidence

My wife and I, two other couples, one couple who each got it in the same building so they have their own apartments (its kinda weird) and a single co worker. Obviously its a small number, but part of the issue with affordable housing is you have to apply....it isnt just handed out.

Everyone I know that's applied for affordable housing has gotten it
