Freeloaders are driving up costs, due to the oversupply of people and unmet demand for housing and finite goods and services. The pretentiousness it simply a cultural function of the types of people that are being attracted to Austin; a mixture of internet douchbags that have ever increasingly proliferated adn infested SXSW, which are largely made up of the west coast and big city self-righteously self-absorbed.

If you don't know what I'm talking about, one of two things is true, either you're naive about this matter, or you are precisely the type I just referred to and, as expected, fully lack self-awareness. I realize that hearing something like that will not necessarily be well received here, but it's really a pestilent type of cultural phenomenon which is a pernicious type of cancer that is constantly eating away at any progress that can be made.

I guess you and I don't agree on the definition of freeloading. If these people are coming in and driving up the price of housing with their six-figure incomes, then I can understand your argument (and do a degree empathize with your sentiment). But to call those same people freeloaders is either mendacious on your part or ignorance on mine.

Freeloading is taking advantage of goodwill without returning the favor. I don't see how driving up the market price of housing is freeloading.
