Not only that but suburban areas are actually built using loans that can’t be paid back bc suburban areas produce so little taxes they aren’t self sustaining
That’s the thing that gets me about the “but I want to live in a single-family house, not an apartment” people: it’s like, sure, that’d be fine if you were willing to actually pay for the true cost of it instead of forcing society to subsidize your lifestyle!
But then they cant just afford it with a single working adult in the family like that was ever long term viable instead of a short period of specifically american history that was never gonna last because that’s just not possible without either completely rolling over the environment or other countries. The horror!
Not that there aren’t plenty of issues with the cost and time requirement of having a family, but my god this whining like life isnt worth living if you can’t buy a single family home is annoying me.
