Though I know some young people have good jobs--my sons friends are all working in restaurants like him--even the ones that have completed their college degrees. I live in a state that is not totally shut down. If our state did shut down again because of the virus, many of them could not pay rent. This is why the government can't shut everything down unless they provide better support systems for low income people. Covid is dangerous but so is not having shelter, healthcare and food and given the risks of Covid when you are in your 20s, perhaps the latter is worse....
People desperately need affordable housing right now. There’s a push to get this going and improved. Have you checked HUD? I think there are subsidized programs.
