    70 percent of people in the EU own homes. In the US it’s 65 percent.

    how many people own a home is not a measure of anything…

      Yes it is? It’s a measure of how many people were able to purchase a home.

      This is directly relevant to this post, which say that modern day Americans can’t dental insurance, much less homes.

        which doesnt say anything about the economic conditions of a country.

          The above meme:

          My parents in their thirties: Let’s buy this house.

          Me in my thirties: I can’t afford teeth.

          As I said, that is BS.

            my man its clearly made more absurd for comedic purposes this community is called Memes not “100% realistic comic depictions of economic conditions”, you cant deny health insurance is a big problem for many people in US.
