Come to my town and see the real America. I live between 3 empty houses. Two more neighbors near me need to sell their houses and can't. My plumber friend down the street wants to get into a smaller house and can't. 5 years ago he was talking about retirement and now he's talking about working for another 10 years and seeing where he is then. In fact, no one talks about retirement here; they talk about getting through the next couple of years and maybe they'll get a raise or find a new job. People looking for jobs can't find one that would pay their bills.
