    Yes it is? It’s a measure of how many people were able to purchase a home.

    This is directly relevant to this post, which say that modern day Americans can’t dental insurance, much less homes.

      which doesnt say anything about the economic conditions of a country.

        The above meme:

        My parents in their thirties: Let’s buy this house.

        Me in my thirties: I can’t afford teeth.

        As I said, that is BS.

          my man its clearly made more absurd for comedic purposes this community is called Memes not “100% realistic comic depictions of economic conditions”, you cant deny health insurance is a big problem for many people in US.

              So since you feel they’re taking it at face value, that means you should take it at face value too? People have tried making light of their issues to comedic effect to cope with the struggles for a long time. So this feels like a weirdly personal high horse position you’re taking.
