Welcome to politcal memes!
These are our rules:
1) Be civil
Jokes are okay, but don’t intentionally harass or disturb any member of our community. Sexism, racism and bigotry are not allowed. Good faith argumentation only. No posts discouraging people to vote or shaming people for voting.
2) No misinformation
Don’t post any intentional misinformation. When asked by mods, provide sources for any claims you make.
3) Posts should be memes
Random pictures do not qualify as memes. Relevance to politics is required.
4) No bots, spam or self-promotion
Follow instance rules, ask for your bot to be allowed on this community.
5) No AI generated content.
Content posted must not be created by AI with the intent to mimic the style of existing images

Housing is mostly a local issue, so you should blame your city council, but the federal government can set incentives for local governments that take time to have an effect, which is what Biden's HUD did https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Housing_Supply_Action_Plan?wprov=sfla1.
Biden's HHS also worked to improve access to childcare, which is dollar for dollar the best way to reduce crime and help the poor at the margin. Trump is now dismantling that. https://nwlc.org/resource/the-trump-administrations-ongoing-attacks-on-child-care-working-women/
Because I am privileged to not be impoverished, I have the time to see what policies governments have put in place.
