WaPo: Rent has never been less affordable, especially for the middle class

Half of American renters spend more than 30 percent of their income on housing costs — a key benchmark for affordability — with the financial strain rising the fastest for middle-class tenants. That’s according to a new report from the Harvard Joint Center for Housing Studies, which found that the number of such renters, considered to be “cost-burdened,” hit a record 22.4 million in 2022 — up 2 million from just three years before. And of those households, 12.1 million had housing costs that ate up more than 50 percent of their income, an all-time high for those with “severe burdens.”

Practically no renters were spared from the pandemic-era surge in housing costs. Prices rose the fastest — a whopping 5.4 percentage points — for middle-class households making $45,000 to $74,999. And it ticked up a notable 2.6 percentage points for those earning $30,000 to $44,999. The country’s highest and lowest earners also saw their burdens increase.

“I expected to see it worsen,” Whitney Airgood-Obrycki, the report’s lead author, said of the affordability problem. “But the degree to which it worsened, I think, was astounding.

The report, which draws from recently released data from the 2022 American Community Survey, comes as rent is still the nation’s main driver of inflation. Other causes of historic price hikes — like supply chain backlogs or worker shortages — have improved significantly, helping stabilize overall inflation. But high rent continues to take up a large share of people’s individual budgets.

If Biden loses, this will more than likely be why.

Bad example. Obama was 47 when he took office. Of course he's going to be greyer in his mid 50's after 8 years in office.

So I got a RFK Jr. Email today, and if you think this dude is eating up Biden votes... it's not happening.

Our outrage that the Canadian Supreme Court would force psychiatrist Jordan Peterson to undergo “social media training” for “demeaning posts”—or lose his medical license—did not go unnoticed.

Even the popular Dr. Peterson himself thanked our campaign for highlighting his plight on his X account (formerly known as Twitter).

The fact is, we live in a country that was built upon the principles of freedom—spelled out in our Bill of Rights, the first 10 Amendments of our Constitution.

The First Amendment says in no uncertain terms: Congress shall make no law “abridging the freedom of speech.”

And while Canada does not share our Constitution, they have long held to the principles found therein.

Several media outlets were as shocked as we were that someone like Dr. Peterson could be forced to undergo training or lose his job.

One news headline read:

The article noted:

A U.S. presidential candidate and a U.S. congressman have condemned recent Canadian court rulings that allow the College of Psychologists of Ontario (CPO) to require Jordan Peterson to undergo social media training in order to keep his professional licence.

Dr. Peterson, in a Jan. 20 post on X, shared a letter sent by Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s office to a recipient named "Norman" that noted similarities between Dr. Peterson's case and Mr. Kennedy's campaign, which the letter said is "currently facing mainstream media censorship."

"The breaking news that a Canadian Court is forcing psychiatrist Jordan Peterson to undergo state-sanctioned media training because of 'demeaning' social media posts is an assault to the fundamental tenets of Democracy and Freedom," said the letter, emailed to Mr. Kennedy's campaign supporters on Jan. 20, as confirmed by his press secretary, Stefanie Spear.

Mr. Kennedy, a former Democrat, had initially challenged U.S. President Joe Biden for the Democratic nomination. In October 2023, he announced he would run for president as an independent instead. The letter, which seeks additional support for his campaign, condemns authoritarianism while making reference to Dr. Peterson's case.

"That a Canadian court would force anyone to submit to their speech codes or else lose his or her ability to earn a living more resembles Communist-led China, not a free nation," it said.

"Authoritarianism was tried by many nations in the 20th century, and it failed every single time because people of the free world opposed those regimes that sought to terminate fundamental human rights."

Our nation has led the free nations of the world in protecting and promoting human rights. The United States has long served as a light for the world to emulate, and we have a long standing agreement with our Canadian friends on this critical issue.

Yet in today’s age, there are many—even in our own country—who are calling for more and more censorship.

According to one recent poll in which respondents were asked if they agree or disagree with the statement “I disapprove of what you say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it”, only 31% of Democratic voters “strongly agreed” and only 34% of Independents agreed with the sentiment.

For the record, our campaign believes in the basic and universal right to speech without qualification.

As a people, we need to be able to disagree with one another and offer differing viewpoints without fear of retribution.
