Their has to be an immediate action plan. Our families are living on top of each other in uncomfortable conditions in having no personal living space. Moreover, many subjects are residing with siblings and parents in over crowded conditions that result in imbalance of sanity. The states with the highest cost of living civilians are suffering at an unbelievable rate. We can't afford to pay 1500-1800 dollars in rent when are monthly income is only 80 percent of the fair market rent value.
There needs to be a complete expansion of affordable housing and first time home buying programs for low income families. The economy isn't providing the revenue necessary for families to make the next step to ownership. Our families are strapped in just trying to survive.
We say....in order to have the American Dream you have to work hard, educate yourself and be persistant. However, many Americans are not being placed in the circle of wealth. These subjects have the education, personality and key components to moving up in Corporate America. However, corporate politics hold them in a stagnate position in feeding their families with bare bones. There is no room for abundance. How do we create an environment that will help deserving families have an abundance with the income they receive yearly?
The government needs a bigger hand in helping families with affordable housing. We need a massive expansion of low income housing programs.

I would hate if you would ever fall on hard times. Education does not mean you end up with a decent living, do you know how many EDUCATED people are unemployed? Some people do take advantage, but some people actually do need these programs. Stop judging and get informed.

Cali Smogshine: You obviously have too much time on your hands! I live in Mill Creek, Wa which is near Everett. Crime that happens here in a year occurs in one day in your neck of the woods. I love CA but hate the people who ruined it. Check the news for Ontario, CA!! I left because it's an overcrowded illegal alien haven.

Cali Smogshine: Uh, it's not to hard to figure out you and the other poster are one in the same! Nice try genius. Illegals from Canada would actually benefit the state not hurt it. Don't be ashamed that you live in Ontario - it's not as bad as Fontexico, Compton, Poormona, Watts, or South Central. Wow, I just realized that you are surrounded by gettos. You're not the smartest are you? Blame your parents for not stressing a college education!!

wish I could take the credit for your haters! But no, I dont live in Ontario.. actually, its Upland.. ok place to live.. never been to Compton, Watts or S. Central, so dont think they are too close. Education at is best.. my parents are both very well educated.. gave us a wonderful life... didnt have to uproot us and run away from california because we were afraid of minorities moving around.. not racist like that! glad you left our wonderful state.. sad.. WA needs canadians to make your state better.. I would have thought that you would rather americans be there.. your so smart! with your population of 10,000...why dont you keep moving north.. maybe you can benefit Canada..I hear they are short on village idiots..
