Moving out so they can complain about high cost of living so they can go elsewhere and just vote on the same exact policies that made the cost of living high A lot of social programs and borrowing money is what ups the cost of living. Not because of anything said city actually does. --- https://imgur.com/tVlkIYH Rip Hana Kimura <cite>lilJoe457 posted [p:943309470] in Is it stil...
