[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I really don’t understand people who say there is no affordable housing in a city that is one top ten markets in the richest country in the world. Go get a job that pays more or commute like the rest of the 7 billion people on the planet. What makes you so special? Go big or go home. That’s life in the city.[/quote]

Agree. It's this entitlement mentality being promoted by liberals.

I never lived in the city proper.  Middle-class college graduate, but still couldn't afford it. I always lived in Maryland or Virginia suburbs and took the metro in. I didn't complain that there was nothing "affordable" in downtown DC.

Same thing with Manhattan. Middle class people can't afford to live there (only the rich who pay full fare or poor who get subsidized by taxpayers). They live in an outer borough or Long Island and take the train (or ferry) into Midtown.

What ever happened to the concept of living where you can afford? [/quote]
