Housing pressure hardest on working households not getting a benefit - report

Jamie Fox2026-07-15T18:37:52.000Z

Heard so many stories of mates working full time and still struggling to pay rent. It's rough out there.

Jack Morrison2026-07-15T19:01:52.000Z

what a load of shit. working families get nothing but beneficiaries get all the handouts.

Luca Reid2026-07-15T19:47:52.000Z

most people on benefits are trying to find work or study. It's not a holiday.

Zoe King2026-07-15T19:14:52.000Z

Only 12% can cover rent AND living costs? And people still pretend the housing market is fine. 😒

Peyton Hall2026-07-15T19:51:52.000Z

Exactly. The real villains are investors and landlords, not the people next door.

my neighbor works 50 hours a week and still can't afford a house. something is broken.

Right? All that study debt and for what? Can't even afford a shoebox in Auckland.

Kai Thompson2026-07-15T19:38:52.000Z

Yeah nah, the real problem is wages not keeping up. My industry has had one tiny pay rise in 3 years.

Jack Morrison2026-07-15T20:11:52.000Z

lol okay whatever. still sick of my taxes going to people who don't work.

Phoenix Reid2026-07-15T19:56:52.000Z

the government just keeps kicking the can down the road. we need rent controls and more social housing. not another working group.

Jamie Fox2026-07-15T20:53:52.000Z

are a joke. Mc snouts in the trough as usual.

Luca Reid2026-07-15T20:03:52.000Z

I'm on the benefit and I barely scrape by. But I see families working full time and they're in the same boat. It's almost like the system is stacked against all of us.

groups are just a way to look busy while doing nothing. Seen it a hundred times.
