    The beauty of this is you’d be able to afford all of these if wages and housing costs were reasonable. The rich are the cause of both issues.

      That’s true, the rich truly are the issue largely. My good landlord(s) aren’t though and they were never what I would consider rich. Just doing slightly better than me at the time. And I got to benefit from their slightly above me income bracket. I think it’s easier in smaller towns and cities than the big places like Vancouver Toronto and such though. The housing costs and rental costs are insane there. Go to places like Thunder Bay and it’s a lot more affordable.
