[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] I don't think I have any reasonable expectation to be able to still afford to live in DC when I retire - that's realistic. I will likely move to a more affordable community when I retire. I've had to move several times in order to find jobs, in order to find affordable places to live, et cetera. Why would anyone else have such expectations of things never changing and always being able to live wherever you want? And, ex-offenders reflects another set of very poor life choices. Yet it's everyone else who ends up paying the price for their irresponsibility. How is that fair or equitable?[/quote] Perhaps you should offer classes to citizens to teach them how to be as reasonable and realistic as you are. You could include calculations on people's earning power and match it with communities other than DC where they would be better off.[/quote] Basic common sense and basic math. How much do you have coming in each month, how much has to go out for rent, food, bills each month. If you can't make ends meet, find a way to either reduce the expense (like somewhere with cheaper rent) and/or try and make more money. It's not rocket science, it's what most regular folks have to do. But of course, basic math and common sense seem to be what are lacking in the first place.[/quote] But what's been argued here is that some people don't have the sense to know when they should get out of town to make way for people who can better afford live here. Thus the need for basic classes. Perhaps at the end of the course, the teacher could offer to rent a U-haul to anyone willing to leave on the spot.[/quote]
