Houses Aren’t For the Average American

Most Americans are priced out of owning a house.

The powers to be in their infinite wisdom and social engineering manipulations have deemed the vast majority of Americans as unworthy of owning a house.

You can live in a rented apartment or house, yet forget about buying a home, even one that is nearly 100 years old.

Here is the pecking order of living standards as an adult:

Live with parents
Homeless in bushes
Homeless in car
Homeless in RV
Live in RV in an RV park with utilities
Live in a house with others sharing a bathroom and kitchen
Live in a quint or quad and share kitchen and bathroom
Live in a quint or quad and share kitchen, have own bathroom
Live in a studio apartment with own bathroom and kitchen
Live in a one-bedroom apartment
Live in a two or three-bedroom apartment
Live in a rented house
Live in a house you are buying
Live in a house you own (except for property taxes and eminent domain laws)

These cover most of the levels of living arrangements, yet not all. There is also living in a mobile home with space rent and on your own property, etc.

The pecking order for living arrangements makes the point that buying and owning a house you are living in is at the top.

Considering the median sales price for a single-family home is around $370k in the U.S. and the median household income is just below $71k, we can see that for most Americans owning a home isn’t an option.

Here is an article I wrote that details the stats in Oregon and specifically in the high-cost-of-living area of Bend, OR.

The last couple of years has seen a sharp increase in home prices across the U.S., which has made owning a home even…original.newsbreak.com

The main point I want to make is unless a person has:

VA loan
Inheritance of money or a house
household income over $100k/year

Then houses aren’t for you.

You can rent a house and spend over half of your income each month on nothing that increases your wealth or value, but you can’t afford to buy a house.

The common 20% down for a mortgage is $74k. Most people without high-paying jobs nor inheritances can’t afford to save this amount of money within their 20s and 30s while trying to raise a family or even live a married life with no children.

I realize there are special programs for some buyers to get nothing down — there are exceptions, but this is pointing out the general rule of what we have going on in the U.S.

For instance, I have a VA loan, so I don’t have to pay anything down and get low interest. I’m not worried about myself, it is the average American I’m advocating for.

The average American who works hard at an honest labor job or even has a college degree.

The attitude of “I got mine, so who cares about everyone else,” is what I don’t like about most modern Americans.

Keep in mind, living with your parents as an adult is the lowest of the pecking order. I truly value independence.

If hard-working Americans can’t afford to buy and work toward owning a home without an inheritance, VA loan, or high-paying job (usually for the government), then who are the houses for?

The houses are not for you. They are for commercial real estate investors, rich people with inheritances, and people who make a lot of money usually working for the government. I realize there are exceptions (like the VA loans, etc.).

In general, using your money to invest in a home is not an option for most hard-working Americans.

You can pay rent for an apartment or house to make other people rich
You can live in an RV in an RV park
You can live in a mobile home in a mobile home park
You can live at home with your parents
You can live in your car or on the streets

Yet, you can’t live in a house, even one that was built 50–100 years ago.

I just wanted to point out the problem most Americans are facing. They might not even realize this problem until they reach their 40s or 50s and still don’t have the money for the down payment.

Most Americans are conditioned to simply be grateful to not be homeless. I understand this, as I’ve been homeless myself. I’ve lived every step of the pecking order except living with my parents as an adult and owning my own home. As of now, my wife and I are paying toward a home.

What about all the hard-working honest Americans who can’t afford the massive down payment or the inflated mortgage payment? Don’t they deserve a modest house to live in?

When will the Americans who are paying toward or own their homes start advocating for the millions of Americans who have been told in so many ways:

“You don’t deserve your own house.”

The richest country on earth, the best country in the world and in history?

Explain to me this conundrum and don’t blame it on capitalistic independence because we have a socialist government as much as Europe, yet without the benefits for the citizens.

I would happily go back to before 1913 when the Federal Reserve (a private organization given power by the Federal government) wasn’t around and Big Government didn’t manipulate every facet of our lives. It isn’t about me asking for our government to help us, but rather for our government to get off our backs and stop ruining our lives.

The Final Deception is Conservative and Religious

Politics are going according to the NWO's deceptive plan. Politics, History, and the NWO I’ve been taking a break from talking about politics lately, yet that doesn’t mean I feel any different about it. Being someone who doesn’t support Trump or the Dems makes it hard to get any traction with an audience. The truth is more nuanced than most people can handle. It is easier to simply pick a side and believe it without much critical thinking. Trump is speaking the common sense views of the majority of Americans who still have half a brain left after the many decades of brainwashing we’ve been subjected to. The big data algorithms have been gathering the views of every American, compiling them into meticulously organized data reports, so they know exactly what most people want to hear. The left are those who have accepted the brainwashed agenda without any critical thinking. They are the useful idiots the NWO has used brilliantly to create most of the problems that t...

An Ode to Grandpa Lee

An old-time pioneer amid modern vanity and "progress." The man stood tall in the wind with the sun beating down on his flat-brim cowboy hat. He was a working man, focused on his pioneer family in the western country they called home. Building and designing structures high and wide, the man skipped across wooden beams high in the air, under shadows cast only by moving clouds; wide open spaces watched the scene as death-defying feats were carried out in relative obscurity, as just another day of work. The man was an old-timer with relatively few years to boast, a before his time pioneer with an adventurous and loving wife plotting business in sagebrush lands far beyond the hyped city life bustling with seemingly meaningless activities. His skin was as leather, scorched in the sun and beaten with high winds containing drifting sand mixed with alkaline dirt. The dry mountain air in the high desert cleansed his heart with comfortable respite from the high temps and harsh weather e...

Brainwashed Into Low-Functioning Morons

When being normal is deemed crazy in a land of morons. Stay in the present and hold the line, as the machine-gun fire of death could be heard ever so clearly. People were falling dead and maimed with every shot given by the hateful enemy. The gruesome scene was covered in scarlet and purple with precious jewels in goblets of wine. The ancient agenda, the lockstep effort, and the social engineering program were ongoing and ever-expanding into the ears and souls of hapless victims, born and raised in the lie. How would they ever know? When the truth was told to them, they simply heard nonsense, madness — how could that be? Meanwhile, the war was waging, silent weapons, deceitful explanations told by greedy sell-outs, ignorant fools, heartless controllers, and brainwashed simpletons. The society was full of low-functioning morons — the diabolical objective was working. Behind pretense and seemingly logical rational, the management of the morons continued into the dawn of a new age; a gold...

Old Cars Are Better than New Ones

Cars are getting too complex with technology. Older and less expensive cars are better than new ones because they don’t overly rely on computer technology to function. What’s going to happen to these new computer cars in 20 years? They’ll be in the junkyard, as the computer was too expensive to fix. What’s worse, in 20 years, the oldest cars on the road will be around 20–30 years old — i.e., the new cars now! That means all cars will have too much technology built in — every non-manual digital function from the computer can go out and stop working, while manual issues are easier to fix. Another main reason why I like older cars is to have more freedom from control. Newer cars with computer junk can be shut off remotely from anywhere, hacked into, and governments and corporations can deny access to use. Why would I pay the exorbitant cost of owning a new car when: It will be in the junkyard in 15–20 years Can be controlled remotely It is expensive Are difficult/expensive to repair or ge...
