Can you believe how petty and ungrateful these people sound? How about the sorry people trapped paying 2k a month in rent for dog crap.
Right. In what universe is this classifiable as a problem?
I’m blessed to be sitting on a low interest rate.
I don’t feel trapped.
Truth be told, I was perfectly happy in my home in Suffolk and wanted to finish of my career there.
But the Navy has a funny sense of humor. The only people who get orders to Hampton Roads are the people who desperately don’t want to be stationed there. If you want Hampton Roads, where there’s countless Navy jobs, you’re out of luck.
Believe me, packing up the wife and kids and relocating to San Diego for a three year shore tour was not how I wanted to end my career but as I was reminded, they’re called “orders”, not “invitations.”
Zero pity for those “trapped”.
Phrases like “you made your bed, now sleep in it” come to mind.

Many Millennials and Gen-Z'ers believe they will never be able to own a home, and this doesn't mode well for conservatism.
People don't become conservative as they grow older. They become conservative when they start investing in the future by doing "adult" things like buying homes and starting families.
Unable to invest in their futures has contributed to the nihilism and despair that today's younger Americans are feeling and gives them the fuel to pursue more frivolous activities such as "fighting climate change."

I believe that the author found two or three ‘petty and ungrateful’ homeowners and then proceeded with his dramatic article.
