Representative Barbara Lee states in her community housing payments have risen to 70 percent of a families income.
SEVENTY PERCENT of a family's income.
There are several problems there.
To begin the country needs a new minimum wage. The subsidies to Walmart in the way of food stamps and Medicaid has to end. If that means it ends Walmart small market stores that employ all of 4 employees per week, I can live with that. When Walmart shuts down it's hideous hold on the USA economy, the local economy will bloom again. The Local Economy was in the neighborhoods Walmart occupied and they'll be back better than ever.
Sometimes unemployment is a good thing. It is a chance to begin again.
Those that lost their jobs with Walmart, can apply for unemployment to find new skills and better jobs than they ever hoped for. The renewed Local Economy will be providing jobs and PROPERTY TAXES to the cities and towns where they prosper.
In addition to poor wages, the cost in housing escalated BECAUSE, BECAUSE, the Republicans cut their subsidies at every turn!
Seventy percent of a family's income is outrageous and is not the USA we are proud of. Republicans are ruining this country and everyone needs to see that.
I heard Ted Cruz talk in New Hampshire today; I thought I was hearing Bernie Sanders and something was wrong with his voice. Two Faced Ted!
