\"Listen<\/a> <\/p>\n

\n

A growing number of people just live to be offended. Most of them are liberals, which is why political correctness has run amok in our society.<\/p>\n

A harmless advertisement in San Francisco has been blown into a “controversy” because it gave some people waiting to be offended a reason to claim they were offended.<\/p>\n

The ad appears on billboards and bus stops. It\u2019s sponsored by a money-lending company. It reads: “10 percent down. Because you\u2019re too smart to rent.” That\u2019s it. Obviously, it appeals to people interested in buying a house. And, that\u2019s the problem.<\/p>\n

The “offended” say the ad is “smug” and insulting. It\u2019s even called mean-spirited because, supposedly, it\u2019s blaming people who can\u2019t afford houses � for their financial situation. It “oozes self-congratulatory privilege,” wrote one of the offended.<\/p>\n

San Francisco is a very expensive place to own property. That\u2019s the reality. The median price for a one-bedroom condo is about $850,000. Which means you\u2019d need 85 large for a 10 percent down payment. Since it\u2019s such a pricy place to live, most San Francisco residents don\u2019t own property � they rent.<\/p>\n

At the risk of offending the offended even more, here\u2019s another economic reality. People can move � to less expensive places. Where they, too, can afford to own. But if you live in high-priced areas � you pay high prices.<\/p>\n

Sorry, that\u2019s the way these things work!<\/p>\n<\/section>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
