I think this is a terrible practice pushed by a greedy society.

They are pulling the wool over peoples eyes by DIVIDING the people and stirring up animosity and classism to redirect rage that is rightfully on THEM the politicians at responsibility, unto a class of society that is one to easily make a "fall guy". 

Plus, population/housing density is also going to mean that the major urban area's of a state are going to skew the state's averages. 

In a capitalist society every transaction is based on both the seller and the buyer/renter thinking they’ll be better off after the transaction.

I am starting with a hunch at the highest possible level: - Urban office has been decimated and has a huge pile of vacancies.

Good neighborhoods within the city are harder to find than in the rurual areas or suburbs do to the urban flight still continuing. 

In my market there is (I can almost guarantee) not a single rental that doesn't provide appliances...maybe washer/dryer...but in urban rentals no one is lugging a fridge/stove around.

No, the head of the Fed is appointed by the President but is a private business.Their purpose isn't to benefit society, it is to keep banks from failing.

I think it’s a bad idea for anyone too make a decision like this based on what society says it has to make sense for you.
