Affordable housing is gone, lost to gluttoney and governmental control.

Affordable housing! What in hell is that supposed to mean.  it mans whatever the hell the use wants it to mean,.
If you are trying to get a grant, everything is affordable
If you are a non-profit, everythink is affordable.

Affordable means that about 1/2 of the people who earn a medium income, can afford to own and purchase a home.

Everyone below that is out of luck.

Why can so few people afford to buy a house?  Could it possible by that they spend too much of their income on entertainment purposes.

Cigarettes used to be 10cents a pack or 2/5 fifths of a minimum wage per houre..  Now, cigatettes are $6,00 a pack og 90% of a minimum waged.

Movies used to be 5,10 25 cents for general admission, where you get two features, a comedy and a candy bar,

Now it is up around $5-10 to go to a movie.

then you have to have a cell phone, TV set, radios, Ipads, and computers, all costing money to entertain your self, or your child.

And we have to pay more taxes in the form of sales tax, don't we.  7-9% where is used to be 3cents.

And are craving for homes goes for bigger and better, with more goodies in the house, after they are all included in the sale price which goes ever higher.

All aided and abetted by the public agencys who that think that higher prices bring in more taxes,

How about just  building a 850 square foot concrete slab, I bathrom, 2 bedroom, with no extras in the house to allow those will to buy such a thing and get a chance to live a normal life.

I am afraid Gluttoney has ruined our society.
