administration blasted for running out of money($1billion) 
to deal with Hurricane
Helene after blowing billions on migrants
the other post about this mentions a $640 million expenditure on illegals by FEMA, butt this article claim over $1 Billion specifically for housing illegal migrants.
This is why housing costs so much for normal citizens.
The american people are getting bussy blasted so bad by their government.
I see the poors are pretending to be big wallet niggas again est. 2016
Hello, welcome to 'I see the poors are pretending to be big wallet gangstas again'
This hole exists as a safe space for refugees from the Facebook(MetaTM groups of the same name. Of which there have been several iterations. We mostly exist to poke fun at the state of living in poverty. While it oftentimes is unavoidable, we do aspire to not be meanspirited. Over the years we have co-opted the term 'Peak Poor' to being someone who exudes poverty, regardless of their actual net worth. Trump and Elon both exhibit the peak poor ethos from time to time while still being the top 0.000001%. You can do something peak poor and still be a good person or a generally adjusted one. We all have a bit of poor in us.
We basically fill a niche similar to fatpeoplehate with a bit less actual malice.
PeakPoor is shotgunning mountain dews at 5 years old.
PeakPoor is not people dying of poverty. While technically the greatest heights of poverty is succumbing to it this is not funny, and is a failure
of capitalism. We do not make fun of poverty to be mean spirited such as that.
Read the room, if it's punching down too hard or really digging into someone whos a sympathetic character it doesn't belong here. (basically READ THE ROOM)

Subscribe to this hole, it's important that we get our numbers up. Love numbers = peak poor
Bonus points for making your post title some variation of peak poor. (Pinnacle of Poverty, Prowess of the Penniless)

I dont even think immigration has serious impacts on wages, that's another questionable claim nativists make, basically every paper ever done on the topic has pointed to immigrants being a net gain to the economy and having little impact on wages.
The one demo they do tend to impact wages for are other immigrants:

everytime they talk about this they never define either "upfront costs" which are high for the poor native workers and "long term" which is a long time(decades/generations) after the immigrants arrive and acclamate and begin contributing more than they take. And the "net gain" to the economy is in the pockets of the super rich who benefit the most from keeping wages for the poor and working class as low as possible. You hate poor people and the middle class even tho you are them yourself kinda like the average chud.

even the housing claim is r-slurred lol:
At the end of the day I don't care if you want to be anti immigration. I have no strong opinions on immigration, if immigration was banned tomorrow I would not care.
my issue is the attempts to make bad arguments sound good. in reality the only reason most people are anti immigration is because they're nativist losers that think they're losers because of immigration.
if rural America wants no immigrants and wants to wither and die then let them.

im talking the last 50 years dummy. And that spike was due to covid ppp money another example of govt money flooding the market driving up the costs of housing.
i know you dont care, ypu dont even vote on my posts you apathetic jerk!
i care bc even tho my employees have less bargaining power to ask for higher wages due to immigration, i still want them to succeed and be enthused about their future. Not all of us are well off and its not nearly as easy for people these days to make it as it was for me, also i think the cultural degradation and the loss of national unity that immigrstion is causing is going to cause serious long term problems socially and national security wise.
how come the native americans only withered and died off once the immogrants (mayo monkeys like you) showed ip? Oh right you dont care about them or anyone. Just like you dont care to learn.

I would say it is dubious, lol.
What's actually happened is the tech industry started branching out across the country to find lower cost of living areas, the work from home revolution sped it up even more.
then you have investors buying up a shit load of single family and multiple family homes at the same time.
Something like 25% of homes being purchased during the price surge was investors buying them.
