I for one support the revival of neo-feudalism and the divine right of kings, seeing as that is how the housing market is trending towards.
No thanks, we need to get rid of the (Royal Families) we have on this planet dirt, not add to it. Having said that, if you create a human being that goes on to live to 70-90 years, you are solely responsible for them until your death.
So the kids aren't responsible for themselves?
But honestly, this is all besides the point. The issue is that people need that assistance to even have a chance at buying a home. Not that there's parents with the means and empathy to help provide for their children. Trying to imply the blame is on the parents instead of the system thats been created is misinformation at its finest.
In a world where everything runs pn money, if parents didn't teach their kids how to make money before they are abandoned financially at 18, then those parents didn't do a good job and in fact failed them. They brought them into this world, so they should have helped them learn how to make and handle money in this world that's all about money. They wouldn't have had to struggle with the "system" they knew about before having them.
