That is ad hominem. All I intended to do was draw attention towards a way we can solve this whole housing issue because I am a victim of it. I'd like to see it solved soon. If we need to extend the duration of loans to reduce the cost of living, then why not try?

 

I have yet to see a friend of mine move out of their parents house. I did it once and could not afford it

You're also a victim of not having a supermodel girlfriend. To be independent, you need to at least have a job. Don't you think? One thing students do is go in together a rent a place.

 

If you do need to stay with you parents, try to make lemonade of the situation. Help out with laundry, etc. as if you are working for the rent. I think the American's culture of stressing that kids leave the nest will need to be modified. Kids can be independent while living with their parents. Parents don't have to wait for kids to leave before changing the relationship between them. Doing this will also help if/when the parent becomes dependent on the child in later years.

Well, here's one from the Left. I don't think there's any island theory from the left feeding this though.

When a few protesters interrupted President Obama's speech at the Notre Dame graduation by shouting, "Stop killing our children!" the student body replied by chanting, "Yes, we can."

Bill Clinton, George W. Bush and George Washington are on a sinking ship.

 

As the boat sinks, George Washington heroically shouts, "Save the women!"

 

George W. Bush hysterically hollers, "Screw the women!"

 

Bill Clinton asks excitedly, "Do we have time?"

One is being built in Dubai and another is planned for Moscow. More interesting is the building will actually create power. I am skeptical of that claim, but at least there is the attempt to go green.

I still see nothing about the age of the participants, but there were 36 liberals of varying degrees(as self-described) and only 7 conservatives. There seems to be a correlation, but does it mean anything?

Hey, I was thinking: Bush said he had political capital to spend and intended to spend it. Well, as with the taxpayer's capital, he has already spent it in his first year and is running a deficit!!
