That's what happens when you live in a suburb of California. At least they kept their home and found somewhere to put it temporarily.
By the way, the article said they considered themselves lucky. I would not consider living anywhere near Portland "lucky;" or for that matter, anywhere on the Pacific side of the mountains.

Yeah, they were playing it smart, only to get hosed by their snobby community. They should be applauded, but NOOOOOOOO!!!

When I was much younger, and single, I lived in a small efficiency apartment. It was basically a bedroom, bathroom and kitchen. I was gone much of the time, and didn't need anything else. Just a place to stash my stuff and sleep the three or four days a week I was home. Bed, bath, kitchen, TV and stereo. What else does a mostly absentee single twenty something guy need, for Chrissake?

I did the same thing. Even had milk crates for end tables. I had a toilet, shower, stove to make gourmet Ramen Noodles, fridge for beer, and a bed. It was perfect.

How do Americans deal with hypocrisy today?

You might live in a warm place and own a new car listening to good music with an excellent stereo after you ate a delicious dinner and feel pretty good about living in a free country, but how does being tracked and wiretapped 24/7 feel?

Americans may feel like they are good people even when they commit three felonies a day just by existing.

How do Americans justify paying taxes when their taxes fund rising debt, Obamacare, food stamps, regulations, US wars, i*****l i*******ts, nanny state laws, security cameras, license plate readers, checkpoints, redlight cameras, speed cameras, FBI facial and voice recognition, curfews, gun bans, NSA wiretapping, the end to the right to silence, free speech bans, searches without warrants, private prisons, mandatory minimums, 3 strikes laws, DNA databases, CISPA, SOPA, NDAA, IMBRA, private prison quotas, no knock raids, take down notices, no fly lists, terror watch lists, Constitution free zones, stop and frisk, 3 strikes laws, k**l switches, National Security Letters, DNA databases, k**l lists, FBAR, FATCA, Operation Chokepoint, TSA groping, civil forfeiture, CIA torture, NDAA indefinite detention, secret FISA courts, FEMA camps, laws requiring passports for domestic travel, IRS laws denying passports for tax debts, gun and ammo stockpiles, laws outlawing protesting, police militarization, chain gangs, boot camps, and Jade Helm?

Americans might feel like they live in a moral country, but how can a nation that tortures and launches endless wars take the moral high ground on anything?

How could Americans not feel responsible for US wars, debt, and tyranny?

How would the founding fathers think about the collapse of the USA?

The American default reaction to hard facts seems to be to not think and to silence those who speak the t***h, but facts don't cease to exist because they are ignored.

Future generations will ask why Americans didn't resist when the US became a police state.

One thing worse than learning that you live in a police state is finding out that no one cares.

The only realistic option left for a moral American seems to be to renounce your citizenship.

Both liberals and conservatives support endless wars, debt, and tyranny. What's the difference?

Ever hear of "manufactured home" It comes with wheels as mine has. It has had the wheels removed and replaced with 'blocks' and full skirting. I don't see why this couple can't do that if they haven't already.

Since everything was illegal in the USSR, Russians just gave up. Now we're seeing the same thing happening in the US.

Why bother doing anything if you're just going to go to jail?
