    the problem is people need to live with roommates and family until they can afford their own place.’

    everyone i know who whines about rent lives alone, i don’t hear people whining about rent so much when they split a place with another person.

    the rent cost between a 2bed and a 1bed in my city is like $300. as in a 1bed costs 3000 and a 2 bed is 3300. so if you get a roommate your rental costs go from 3000 to 1650.

      See OP. They can afford their own place. They are paying more in rent than the would on a mortgage.
