Reply to comment by pixel_of_moral_decay in How are rents going up 10% again? by russokumo

Yes agree 10% appears to be the norm this year. Still will rant about it. We need to build 10x the housing each year so it depreciates like Tokyos does.

Then you gotta be cool with the negatives their economy has as well… poor seniors depending on their kids (or homeless if they have none), little free income for the average person after housing and food etc etc. that’s how that depreciation is paid off. People working 60hr weeks for minimal pay, seniors depending on their kids etc.

Doesn’t come from nowhere. You pay for it one way or another.

Or do what UAE does and bring in slave labor.

But reality is humans being paid to do work will ultimately cost you money.

Again, you’re mostly complaining about a minimum wage hike and it’s effects on our economy. Let’s not pretend otherwise.
