      You pay $500 less than the average American for rent. I think you may be lacking the perspective necessary to engage productively with this topic.

        My rent is $500 less than whatever metric you’re using, but our local ecconomy is also lowers than yours.

        Average wage here is 10/hr for a factory job. I’ve heard some places like Seattle make $20/hr just working at starbucks.

        And keep in mind my rent is basically 1 room.
