Why are techbros so stupid? Is it because STEM requires literally zero critical thinking skills?

Can you really not tell the difference between an economy and a single person? And did you move to a cardboard box, or did you continue to need a home? Did the number of homes you needed change? And again, are you stupid?

You also on a bandwagon for the price of fuel? Food? Transportation? Taxes? How about the fees you pay your bank for having an account?

While I agree that there are a ton of bad landlords sadness is there is no decrease in price anywhere. Insurance, property taxes, cost of repairs/enhancement, maintenance.

The majority of renters would have difficulty keeping up financially even before the price spike during COVID when rates were low. Now both the price and mortgage rates have gone up and fucked everything even more.

Anyway back to my point why is this the sword you actively choose to fall on when I believe it's one of the smaller problems to be ranting about.
