Homeless......

So, I'm wondering why in America it seems as if the working middle class is always the pot that is pissed on! I say that because affordable housing for individuals that work, do not have children, and want to obtain and education is unheard of. For example, the other day my husband and I went to look at some lofts for rent and were told because he makes more than 29,000 (the poverty level for a family of four) that we did not qualify. Yet, I am a full time student with no income that needs to be supported. The housing market has become a nightmare!!! I say that because it is easier to obtain a $100,000.00 car loan than it is to get a loan to purchase a home. It also seems to us that individuals on Section 8 and many other government assistant programs seem to reap the benifits of our tax dollars, while we yet have a place to call home........
