Can the basic income for working class jobs cover modern rentals and pricing?

[EricaParruzzo]

Not all Americans are privilege ld in life to finish high school or receive a college education. Some people drippnout in highschool and have to work at age 15-18 because their parents didn't have the money to out them through high school.. not talking about middle paying jobs like Police officer or foreman

No! Those jobs require a grade 12 certificate. Or Matric as they say in some countries.

I'm talking about people who dropped out of school and are forced to work for low paying jobs like at a Fish and chips Shop or small paying jobs like fry Cook, dish washer, Store workers, waitors, cashiers, and working class jobs

The basic Salary for that line of work cannot cover Modern rentals... Too expensive

Not in good Areas or neighborhoods man

I think so... If they rented an outbuilding apartment.

generally looks like... not so much.

our govt theft system over prior 30 years has stolen so much of our wealth that it is now looking... obvious.

what saves many kids is... parents. without parents passing on $, they'd have tough time as standard of living declines.

reality is... when you spend more than you produce, standard of living declines.

we've been doing that long time...

Over consumption...

Not if you want to live around white/Asian people. If you're willing to not be racist and go live in nearly all non-white areas, you can afford to live anywhere.

It's more a Safety issue than a any other unessary issue.

The SA statistics support your claim, but the second amendment fixes that problem. I understand that white people are intentionally targeted for violence by all the other races, but it's an easy fix when you carry a firearm for protection. I went from regularly getting assaulted or robbed, to 100% safety with this one trick the government doesn't want you to know.

I understand it shouldn't be like this, but it is, and it's going to get much worse. So what choice do people have? Can't make money appear out of nowhere.

Wages in America are abysmal unless you are lucky enough to be in a top-shelf profession. My wages tripled when I moved from there.

[AI Opinion]

The basic income for working-class jobs often struggles to cover modern rental prices and living expenses, especially in urban areas. Rent, along with costs for utilities, food, and transportation, frequently exceeds what these low-paying jobs provide. This economic gap can make it challenging for individuals without a completed high school education to afford basic living expenses. Many seek multiple jobs or rely on community support to make ends meet. It's crucial for policies to consider affordable housing and living wages to support these workers adequately.

life is not fair but the woods are full of people who were not born to rich parents and still went on to have successful careers.
