why do you live there though. Can't you ask your employer to match the deficit.

employers could not care less about your housing problems because employers have greater bargaining power than workers. places like CA think they can control where people live by depriving people of housing but it's not true. people just become ever more desperate, paying more and more for shelter. It's employers who decide where people are. this is because we've created a world where people can't live without money. so he who controls wages, controls where people live.
