I used to live in a different neighborhood as a kid

Before we moved to the ghetto

And now I’m in Pitt

Why is it always people from NYC who are economically illiterate?

Because NYC is a shithole

No people from la too

And sacremento

Morning @Goblin_Slayer_Floki , you up to spitroast a syndie today?

If i must

But i get the face. Im not gay after all.

Ass is ass

I'll just jerk it in the corner

Remember, no nut

Actually it’s because NYC is expensive as fuck and it’s hard to practice budgeting when all you have budget is if you have enough money to get food

That's by design

Also you’re always gotta be somewhere in NYC

Why do you think most who work in the more expensive parts commute?

Also, rent control.

This is what our global overlords want for everyone

All cities are like that

Rent control really fucks shit up.

Bubble will pop sooner or later

oh God, do we have to argue about supply and demand curves?

Hopefully this time people will realize keeping their heads down is useless

As long as people want to live there it wont

Wait for the grid to be fried

Iirc nyc has a huge union issue. Even in a natural disaster they turn away workers from even other unions.

Isn't that what Syndicalism is?

I remember a story about the massive blozzard and workers from north carolina were unioned electricians and plumbers were turned away from helping.

Sounds like an insurance being for profit problem

I doubt you know how insurance even works

okay I'm back

what'd I miss

Yea most people have no clue how insurance actually works

Or the fact most health insurance companies are non profit or not for profit companies.

Insurance is probably the greatest invention of the past 150 years

Which means even without the 501c status they arnt able to make more than 3% profit.

Anything with the name 'Mutual' in it is operated in that regard

Imagine a health insurance company that was operated as a non profit by a religious organization that as part of your plan you had to volunteer at the hospital once a month or something like that

Talk about cheap healthcare lol

All the blue cross blue shield companies have to agree to non profit or not for profit
