SUVs have done more to displace in person hangouts among kids than phones

Well there's your problem. too many people like weed and by the tine you can pass a teat you've already found a diffrent job that doesn't judge you for what you do on the weekend with a body fluid analysis. Drop the drug test and applications will come. Everyone who is creepy invasive like that has hiring problems even the NSA
so if I applied I'd be accepted and get on-the-job training?
Are they willing to hire people who don't already have 10 years experience? Are they willing to train people who are fresh out of high school? If not then those companies can only blame themselves for not having workers. After the Great Recession companies got entitled because they could hire whoever they wanted with whatever experience and degrees they wanted for rock bottom prices and that entitlement never left.
You say it takes a hell of a lot to go homeless but there's literally homeless people everywhere in this country. I literally can't ride my bike to the thrift store (can't afford a car) without passing a half dozen tents on the sidewalk, and then you get to the thrift store and it's so deeply picked over there's nothing worth buying. None of that is a sign that things are good. America is a great place if you're rich not if you're poor
Just because unemployment is low doesn't mean the jobs are good comment to the contrary the jobs are shit and you often need more than one just to survive
The point of course is that there shouldn't be entire towns that are on affordable. Expensive houses / condos in the city? Sure I guess. An entire city where nothing is Affordable to people working normal jobs there? No that shouldn't be a thing anywhere and it needs to be made impermissible. We need a lot of non-market housing
We need to tax big corporations and use it to fund public housing at a rate of one unit per 1000 residents in every Big City to small town in this country, and that's the minimum amount some areas will need much more
I make decent money for a janitor but I'm Union that's why. The hours suck though
Can confirm, I've had issues with the pieces of shit before, although never on the fediverse.
Urbanism isn't just for hippies and LycraBros, it's also for anyone too young to drive a car
