        To be fair that is the kind of place where the argument “move somewhere cheaper then if your income doesn’t match the cost of living” does have some merit. Oh, and fuck the employers who pay wages below the cost of living in their area.

          Moving is incredibly expensive and you have to find a new job, which is hard as fuck for anything paying better than slave wages. I feel like shit like this is written by experienced coders, surgeons, people like that who can snap their fingers and have a different job.

            The kind of places where daycare is 5K a month are probably the 5% most expensive areas in a first world country. If you don’t have a high paying job in those areas your job is very likely available elsewhere.
