In some of the Worst neighborhoods in the San Fernando Valley, an Apartment starts at $2000 per month. No Parking, living in the slums and High Crime everywhere.
Now if you are an Illegal Alien with a couple Illegitimate Illegal Alien kids, EVERYTHING IS FREE!!!
They are right. There is no future there unless they change their ways and stop with the free stuff and illegals. But I don’t think that will happen.
A lot of Se Renta signs in my neighborhood- hard to see how these young people making 20 an hour get by here. Even I depend on a lot of OT to have walking around money after all the bills are paid. If I lost my job, I’d be out on the street
What would happen to housing costs if they flushed all the wetbacks back to Mexico?
Hey liberals. Each of those millions of third worlders you love so much need somewhere to live, and they add to the traffic, and they use first world level of resources, and they breed like bunny rabbits which requires more housing, creates more traffic, more resource utilization, and more pollution, not to mention a greater strain on water usage, landfill usage, power usage, hospital usage, and packing already dubious schools with kids who dont speak english. i hope the extra votes are worth turning your cities into overcrowded slums, freeways into parking lots, and rural areas into never ending suburbs
(BTW, my son owns 4 rent houses, 2 in Glendora and 2 in Sierra Madre)
They are against houses and are building hive housing around train stations.
In the end Liberalism is, as always, a non-sequitur.
I took a job in the SF Bay area back in the 1980s. The closest I could find a home I could afford was near Modesto.
I commuted each day to Pleasanton, and then drove to where my work was (I was a service tech). Leaving home at 6 and not getting home until after 6. Made for a long day, but it was a job. I am now retired and the home is paid for.
It can be done.
Mr.GG2’s daughter and son in law recently paid $1.2 million for a 1958 POS fix up bungalow in that area. He works for Intel. That house in Atlanta would have been $150,000 tops. I just shake my head.
Meanwhile, Jerry Geezer keeps screaming that we need the whole world to “move to” (i.e., illegally immigrate) California.
And he thinks everyone agrees with him.
The Liberal answer is ...... government housing.

Who brought the popcorn?
This might be the future of the Denver area. Calis, people from other areas of the country, illegals, and third worlders including Muslims are pouring in here.
They can’t wait until everyone is packed like sardines into high rises and using mass transit to go anywhere. Then the Liberals will be happy - more cities with which to demand federal subsidies for mass transit.
Problems like these shift California’s to other states. Not cool. Same for pr. They will stay in florida.
Friends and their adult kids are leaving the San Fran Peninsula. Often the kids move first to cheaper places with jobs and the parents follow. The old family “rancher” gets listed for $2M to $3M and is sold in four days. The newly rich will then either tear it down or extensively remodel it and park their Tesla and BMW in the driveway.
Two of our kids have left California and I have no doubt #3 will follow. This is no place to start a life or raise a family.
Meanwhile, along El Camino Real, tens of thousands of apartments and condos have been built in the past eight years from South San Francisco to San Jose, driving traffic on secondary roads to insane levels. What were quiet country roads 40 years ago are not clogged with bumper-to-bumper traffic. Waze is sending traffic onto once-quiet neighborhood streets driving resident crazy. Tensions rise with prices and traffic and it seems like everybody is on edge and rude these days, much more so than 40 years ago when you could count on every car stopping for you if you even got near a crosswalk. Today you have to be ultra-cautious to not get run over.
On the bright side, we’ve got a nice three-day rainstorm on us, so there’s a bit of drought relief happening.
We finally pulled the trigger on a second home in the Idaho panhandle and we are SO looking forward to spending April to October there to get away from this.
There isn’t a person we’ve talked to who moved away from here who hasn’t said “I am SO happy I left that nutty place. I should have moved years ago.”
Let them devour each other in an ideological fight.
The Left always ends up involved in a circular firing squad.
Any way we can help fan the flames?
