never understood the logic about getting out of blue states? If you wanna buy something and rent it, sure suckers in blue states will pay more for rent cuz it’s near to a Starbucks or Trader Joes. I’m saying get out of blue states because they suck
lol I live in Utah. Housing market sucks here too.

Oh for sure, and in a densely populated nation that is bound to happen… although hopefully in densely populated first world nations, population growth is stagnated enough to not make this a big problem..

…but in North America where there is still an enormous amount of government owned, non-park land, it’s to some degree about government keeping land scarce and unavailable. Doubly so in Canada. I think it’s BLM (bureau of land management) in the US, and here in Canada, it’s crown land. The government has to do a balancing act there in not crashing the real estate market with an over saturation of cheap land for development, while making enough available to keep home ownership a reasonable aspiration for the middle class.

There are other things at play, of course. Corporations and investors owning a steadily growing percentage of single family residential homes is a problem too, given that they are using them as investment vehicles for rental income on both small and large scale.
BLM is correct. It wonderful, you can go wherever you like no charge. Camp, climb, fish, etc.

Your favorite governor got wrecked once again.

He just lost the biggest deal in DC to Mayor Bowser even after "it was in the bag." :lol:

Things I've been "enlightened" about regarding the bridge collapse so far:
- it was a controlled demolition
- it was a distraction from Diddy
- it was "soft disclosed" by some movie named "Leave the World Behind"
- was done by "the elites" in order to bankrupt Americans (I guess they stopped liking making money from Americans buying goods and services)

- RACISM
- DEI cabal
- the Chinese
- the Jews
I read it was Biden but I guess that falls under the elite

You’re in a rough area for real estate too, but on the whole ‘murican real estate market has at least stayed somewhat within reach for a lot of people. Canada’s real estate market is basically fucked almost everywhere unless you wanna live where it’s dark for 23 hours a day in winter.
I see your Canada and raise with Australia. Sydney specifically one of the most unaffordable cities in the world for real estate. Like everywhere, Boomers and their thirst for owning multiple rental properties have absolutely fucked it for the rest of us.

So with the Port of Baltimore closing, where we gonna get all our dead Ukrainian hookers now?

Look, we all saw Season 2 of The Wire.
I'm just watching and that episode came the day before, it was freaky.

Is the bridge the same one they use as the policing boundary between city and county?

Edit: I believe they were Hungarian?

Wild! Yeah, you may be right about the Hungarian thing. Frank Sabotka was almost as Polish as our dear founder @Martin, but the girls... it's been a while. I thought they might have been Ukrainian.

But the bridge should be the same, since it was built in the 70s and is a major feature of the port.
