When you are a young person starting out in life affordable housing is a dream.
Yes, as it was in my generation, and the generation before. Young people just starting out don't get to live at the top of the food chain, today's generation seems to want to start out where their grandparents worked 40 years to get. I wasn't able buy a house until I was 28, and didn't buy a new house until I was 55. And Mommy and Daddy weren't likely to subsidize me. So I'll pass on tears for today's youth.
