Tldr: DNC knows that a lot of voters haven't shown proof of citizenship.
You're viewing a single thread.
Dude give it up, conservative values just aren't popular
Not on Lemmy at least, but I think most people like being able to own a home
You're anger is valid. You're missing what the underlying connection to why you can't afford a home.
It's not democrats or Republicans. Your boss pays your salary.
My boss doesn't tax my unrealized gains.
And before you say that only applies to the rich, the income tax only applies to the rich at first. Now everyone pays taxes
You probably don't even own a Honda civic making "unrealized gains"
I actually do own a house, it's not exactly some crazy rich thing to have.
Yeah, and how old are you and when did you buy it?
Or better yet, whose money bought it? Daddy's?
Mid thirties, and I bought it in my mid twenties. And I have a mortgage, so technically the banks money.
Oh, you bought your house a decade ago. In your 20's too, which either means you live in a cheap shit hole, or mommy and daddy's money helped you out (either directly, or by shielding you from things like student debt).
I'm assuming that your house is a Patrick Star style rock, and you've been living under it for this whole time, because house prices are up 60%+ since then, in some places more than doubling, all while wages stagnate.
Where did "I think taxes on unrealized gains are a bad idea because house prices go up" become "I don't think house prices go up"?
That doesn't even make sense.
Yeah, I'd like to own a home. What the fuck are Republicans going to do to help me with that? They seem entirely disinterested in helping people like me who are priced out of home ownership. They'll just tell me to stop eating avocado toast or some nonsense about accountability.
At least Democrats are actually acknowledging the housing crisis and trying to come up with a plan to fix things. Hell, think of how many college graduates might finally be able to afford a mortgage if Republicans didn't block student loan forgiveness at every turn.
Hell, you folks insist that taxation is theft. Forgiving a student loan is just giving some of that money back, right?
But now, when the government takes money, it's "theft", and if they give money it's a "handout". Nothing is ever good enough. You folks wont' stop until the government is completely destroyed and we have no public institutions anymore.
