>managers mistreat employees during an interview... that's a huge red flag

This is my answer too. If I sniff some bad interpersonal chemistry during the interview process, it's almost always a no. Barring absolute desperation, the higher wage (probably) won't offset hate-my-life-in-12-to-15-months, or, worse, step-into-some-pit-yielding-months-of-unemployment.

Only if you consume too much reddit.

Homeownership is higher than it was decades ago when it was supposedly easier to by a home https://fred.stlouisfed.org/series/RHORUSQ156N.

The US gov has a strange definition of race.. White could mean anyone who is not African or Asian.. I wonder what that chart would look like if you consider all the groups within this “white” collection, for example: Germanic, Slavic, Roman, Norse, Berber, Arab & Turkic

Why did crime spike in 2020? Because of politicians like Lightfoot.

Has been a general huge surge in crime nation-wide since around 2015. It became more apparent and escalated in 2020 after the summer of love but it's an issue nobody is really addressing.

Fuck that we're annexing a hundred mile wide easement through Jesusland and just remaining America. We have all the money and you're the ones who want to leave. Bye yall.

Yeah, something isn't right about the data, if they have the son of X rich guy with 1000 homes and 1000 dudes with no home and average that as 100% ownership ? Because I have a hunch that's what's happening here.

Income, income of parents, mean income of state.

fuck that, why does az get absorbed into new mexico? it should be the other way around

So, in the first few months I did pump once a night just to get some extra milk for freezing and so my husband could give him the occasional bottle. And then once I went back to work when my son was around 7.5 months I pumped more frequently, basically whenever my work schedule meant I couldn't accommodate my son's nursing rhythm.

But I think any nursing mother would tell you pumping is basically the worst of all feeding options. It is much more time intensive than nursing (need time to set up pump + actually pump, then time to feed baby, then time to clean pumping parts for the next time) but also still puts a lot of the primary feeding pressure on the person producing the milk (unlike with formula, where anyone can prepare baby's food and then give it to them). So I tried to avoid it as much as possible!

This is just an ignorant statement. Texas is the 9th largest economy in the world, and Ohio is 21st, just ahead of Argentina. You’re looking at the other red states that are parasites. But Republicans are busy running Ohio and Texas into the ground.

Are you telling me that you're pulling library and park expenses and counting them against the tax obligation of poor people?

I think you may need to explain what you mean.

And then "transfer" is what? Social security, Medicare, Medicaid?

It’s almost like you could even break voting down to the individual level, but neighborhoods is close.

Why the USA of all places? It’s globally known that the USA has very reductionist racial categories. It’s one of the few countries that actually count it in the census and it gives a list of categories to choose from that often don’t include people

Just a quick tip, including the population bar graph doesn’t really need to be there since you already normalized the data per 100,000 people. That’ll help make the graph a little neater.

Well… the rich have just been getting richer. So I guess this isn’t really a surprise because of what has been going on with the commodification of housing.

It would be better to have just the beginning of each year marked on the x axis, rather than what I assume is auto-generated ticks (which are spaced every 3 quarters).

The vertical gridlines are very dense, to the point of being a distraction. It bothers me that they fade out before reaching the x axis, so that it's very hard to actually correlate them to a year/quarter.

It would be nice to embed a description of this index in the graphic, since very few people will have heard of it before.

Wow. That explains why so many other states feel flat to me.

The simplest explanation is decline in marriage rates. Easier for two-income households to afford a house. Would like to see the data further broken down to show this. That would tell a completely different story that has nothing to do with race.

John Denver was not full of shit.

How about Indian and Asian homeowner? The top earners in the US
