Nowhere in America can someone working full-time at a minimum wage job afford a 2 BR apartment. If we had given everyone $2k/mo during the worst of the pandemic, the eviction crisis might not be the humanitarian disaster it is now. “Go get a job” is cruel advice.

Lol I can’t afford a 1-bedroom making above minimum wage unless I want to live in a mold infested hovel. I have no idea how you’re supposed to afford anything anymore.

1) minimum wage jobs are for people starting off in the rom force. You’re not supposed to be there long. 2) fix that damn money.

So you get a roomie. Do what you gotta do. "Go get a job" is loving and compassionate. The government paying someone's way is cruel. How many dependent children have been created and perpetuated by the cruelty of government handouts?
