@callisto Thus a "middle class" lifestyle ratchets ever upward; flight from those expensive communities for arbitrage on expensive necessities like housing distorts smaller markets as resource demand rises long before the local wages do (if they ever do.) But at the same time, as ever, the expectations of a "decent life" are predicated on the upper third. Do less for your children and you're deemed unfit; so people do, afford it or no. Inequality locks in. @corbden @kikebenlloch @msbw @cobweb
