So like $69k a year, which isn't bad, per se, but in many cities that's still not enough to afford a three-bedroom apartment.

69/hr actually comes to ~140k a year

edit: I'm dumb it's 20 hrs a week lol

That's a fair point, but if we're imagining a world with a twenty hour work week we can also imagine a world where life's basics aren't made unaffordable by capitalist greed.

Why do you need there bedrooms for yourself?

[-] comfortable_doug@hexbear.net 21 points 1 year ago

Because children shouldn't be forced to work so that we can afford their bedrooms

I think they assumed it was one person living in the apartment.
