In this scenario is AirBnB shorthand for all short term rentals or specific to that company? Meaning could I do AirBnB for 90 days and VRBO for 90 days or are they combined?

Huh? I corrected your initial statement that population was falling. I never mentioned crowing or cost-of-living. I was simply explaining why other states are growing faster than NY/NJ and the rest of the northeast.

Yes, western and southern states are growing faster than northeastern states, this isn't new information. It's almost like that part of the country was settled first and then saw two Great Migrations in the 20th century. When thos

It seems like you are the one who introduced the phrase “entry level” to make your point. OP simply said that these are not stepping stone jobs, but destinations with little upward mobility.

I also think this has an impact on inflated asset/stock prices: The total number of U.S. exchange-listed companies peaked near 8,800 in 1997 and has since sunk to 4,900 as of year-end 2012, according to data furnished by Strategas Grou
