Cancel Rents and Mortgages[W:280]

Re: Cancel Rents and Mortgages

So below average people can just die. Your worldview is disgusting.
You think not owning a home kills you?

:lamo

YOU dont own a home...

 
Re: Cancel Rents and Mortgages

Please answer my questions first. Dont answer questions with questions.

And if it's their choice to remain unskilled...I didnt force them into anything.
Stupid people choose to be stupid?

:lamo

YOU dont own a home...

I think living on a tent on the sidewalk will get you killed, yes.
 
Re: Cancel Rents and Mortgages

I think living on a tent on the sidewalk will get you killed, yes.
So...to you there is either home ownership or dead on the sidewalk. Oh...thats right...you despise landlords so you would never rent.

Luckily...living under your moms care you dont even have to pay rent. SO...thats KIND of like communism.
 
Re: Cancel Rents and Mortgages

I care about the unskilled. However I dont believe that there is any reason that any average American worker needs to remain unskilled. Ever.

If they do so, that is their choice. They are responsible for the consequences of their choices.

Why do you think that people that choose to remain unskilled and thus less likely to make a higher wage are deserving of more of the sweat of another's brow? Why should others sacrifice after their hard work if the unskilled laborer chooses to remain at a financial level lower than the current standard of living?

Stupid people choose to be stupid?

Please dont answer questions with questions. Are you just done, having failed? Otherwise, why are you just posting nonsense?

I never referred to anyone as stupid.
 
Re: Cancel Rents and Mortgages

And only those places have jobs. Hmm.

Jobs for you? I can't imagine why anyone would want to employ you. In the ten posts of yours I have read you come off like a malignancy to any perspective employer.

I'm married with two children. Take your cocky, condescending attitude and f*** yourself.

What should I tell my kids? Sorry, I know you guys would like a home, but see the landlord's profit is sacrosanct, and since we can't afford his crushing rents we're going to have to camp near my work?

**** you. ****ers like you deserve to lose everything.

No way. Seriously? Be honest...you arent living at home under your moms roof? So...then...you are a home owner...right?

Please answer my questions before asking more of your own. Every time I answer, you dont even acknowledge it and you move the goal posts.

So far you've changed 'unskilled' to 'stupid' and 'renters' to 'homeless' :doh

Did I not kiss enough ass to your liking?
 
Re: Cancel Rents and Mortgages

What makes you think such a person can pay the bills, taxes, maint. on a home? THere is more than cost of buying. Such a job is not remotely stable and many lenders wouldnt loan to him without a great deal of savings/collateral. Your description makes the person look like a poor risk.

Owning a home is a big responsibility. OTOH if he works hard enough to save the $$ for a solid downpayment and can show he's a good risk, great.

And IMO, your example is not typical of the average American worker. Do you think it is? If not, then it's a stupid example.

Lursa wants below average people to be homeless. This is the worst example of humanity.

That's a total lie. That's all you've got left then? Failed arguments and lies? And I guess you missed the bold in your blind bitter bias?

Are you referring to that worker as 'stupid'???

If all a man has the capacity to do is bus tables, and bussing tables doesn't pay the rent, then he has no choice but to live on the street.
 
Re: Cancel Rents and Mortgages

Here's what should be done. Impose nationwide rent control during the emergency. Apply it to mortgages also. Cap how much can be paid by living area. Those living in humble homes should be paying at most a few hundred per month during this crisis. And honestly, just keep it that way. You have people getting wealthy who add nothing to society, who merely have a claim on wealth by owning property. Limit their profits and help those who really need it: workers, not owners.

I agree, however don't expect landlords to supply heat and water, gas and power, building maintenance and cleaning, groundskeeping, or payment of real estate taxes. Forget about repairing roof leaks, broken windows, door locks, rodent and other vermin extermination, sanitation in general including collecting and throwing away trash, with tenants responsible for their own recycling and chipping paint. Let broken sidewalks, steps, entranceways stay broken. Fair is fair, right? So what if landlords abandon their properties, and local governments go bankrupt because of the absence of real estate and school taxes. Why should you care? Frankly, why should anyone care if there is no decent housing available at all, just derelict buildings for squatters? You called it. You live with the results.

Maintenance is no more than a few hundred per month. These are crocodile tears for the wealthy.

:lamo

But see...we WONT lose everything because people like me have BEEN where you are and have busted our ass and know what it takes to succeed.

Dood...I grew up without parents. I lived as a young teen for 2 years in a trailer literally in a swamp in Florida with a hole in my bedroom floor grateful as **** that I had a roof over my head. But I didnt whine and cry and piss myself about how unfair life is. My well runs dry tomorrow, I ****ing dig another one. If my shovel breaks, I'll wash phone trucks til I have enough to buy another shovel. None of this was easy. I worked a full time second job and often a third kicking forms before work and on the weekend while I was in the military. I worked fulltime, part time at 7-11 and fast food joints and went to school full time. Ive worked security jobs, as a janitor, Hell I spent 5 years working nights and weekends in Vegas as a bodyguard. Ive mowed yards for a living, done side home renovations jobs, I even spent summers umpiring baseball games and winters reffing basketball...thats some thankless ass work there. We bought what we could afford, improved it and moved up...rinse, lather, repeat. In addition to my full time gig which I am 4 years away from retiring (for a secind retirement) from I have a private business and properties. Its hard work. 4 more years...and I'll relax and cut it back to one. But because of our hard work our kids were started off two steps higher on the ladder. My grandkids will be 5 or 6 steps higher. And along the way, we have had a hell of a ride.

But hey...you go ahead and bitch and moan and piss yourself about how unfair life is. Hell..some day you MIGHT even be able to convince yourself its someone elses fault.

Except progressives seem to think that anyone who isn’t a destitute fleabag must be rolling in Benjamins.
 
Re: Cancel Rents and Mortgages

Banks and other finance companies are getting bailed out, why not American workers? Unemployment is going to 30%, yet we're not going to give workers relief from their bills? Just a quick few thousand that will go straight to landlords and banks? Give me a break.

Here's what should be done. Impose nationwide rent control during the emergency. Apply it to mortgages also. Cap how much can be paid by living area.

Our government doesn't take this seriously because it's owned by exploiters, profiteers, and usurers. It's a disgusting system and I'd love to see corona collapse it.

The COVID stimulus bill contains some strong "bail out provisions" for workers. Generous unemployment insurance provisions, for example.
 
Re: Cancel Rents and Mortgages

So let's say there's a guy born kind of stupid. Not his fault, he's just dumb, but he's really good at bussing tables. If he does that full time at the best of his ability, should he be unable to ever own a home because he's kind of dumb?

That's a total lie. That's all you've got left then? Failed arguments and lies? And I guess you missed the bold in your blind bitter bias?

Are you referring to that worker as 'stupid'???

You clearly asked about OWNING a home.

There, your lie is plain. Just one of many.

You fail, again.

Yawn. Typical BS excuses from those who think they're entitled to charge tenants as much as they can and delude themselves into thinking that they're doing society a favor.
 
Re: Cancel Rents and Mortgages

What if you answer this for me? How does letting Chinese millionaires buy American property and rent it out help Americans?

Same way it did when the Japanese were buying America, before running home clipped out of $billions.

The largest foreign landlord groups in the US are the British, Germans, Dutch and French. Are you a member of the Anti-Chinese League, the Naturalists? One of those anti-papist guys who doesn't want anymore Irish or Italian immigrants? The First Nations want you evicted from their country.

Oh cool! So workers get a few thousand while businesses who made their owners millionaires and billionaires get billions! What a country!

Do you consider spending 50% of your income on rent AFFORDABLE?
