    That’s nuts. It’s going to get to the point where wealth is so stratified that nobody can pay (ie anyone with money buys a house and the rest of us can’t even pay rent)

    …Lemmy DT squat? I’m not ablebodied but can contribute to subsistence farming and patching up the communal abandoned shack between shifts at the workhouse

      As a single person with no chance of an inheritance and no family support in Vic, and who probably can’t ever maintain a 5-day full time job for more than a few months at a stretch without burning out, I’m seriously wondering if I can afford to exist beyond being a financial conduit from my employer to the landlord

      Not saving that much moving to the outermost suburbs as there’s less stock for singles and a jump in commuting costs and time. The only real future I have is to move interstate to live with family
