Yes. Good meme. More like this.
I love that all the Usual Suspects showed up on this thread to push "BOTH SIDES".
Why don't states with Dem majorities raise the local wage to match housing costs?
Washington State, New York, Minnesota... none of these states have escaped this problem.

The state apparatus should probably regulate the prices too, and improve the public housing projects.
