Conservatives continue demonstrating their contempt for the working poor.

Lol. I see you're making an ass of yourself again. Glad to see some things never change.Boy, you are just all up in your feels aren't you? Shit if you can't afford the place without extracting money from others, sell it to someone who'll actually live in it. No calm down before you stroke out.
Nope, I'm a guy who grew up being indoctrinated into capitalist ideology just like you.
So being a better place to be than an undeveloped country is the bar for greatness? Shit, that should be our tourism slogan; "U.S.A., it's better than a war torn third world country." Nevermind that we play not a small role in keeping those countries poor.Ah, so you're privileged then? Maybe you should allow the less fortunate a voice for a change. Maybe one of those millions of immigrants who fleed their bullshit governments to come to the land of capitalism.
Sorry people just don't like being told the hard truth about what they really do.Lol. I see you're making an ass of yourself again. Glad to see some things never change.
Do you work? If so you're also "extracting money from others". Remember, property is just a physical representation of effort. If you can't wrap your head around this then you have serious problems.
The guy's a troll. He already said the same stupid shit in another thread a few weeks ago and actually said "all the tenant gets for their money is a house to live in", then he bounced out of the thread when I asked if uber drivers should be allowed to charge for rides since according to his logic, they're just listening to the radio all day while other people pay for their car and gas and give them free money.Right. They did no work to buy it and do no work to maintain it . . . good grief.
Right because its "working poor" who aren't paying their rent right now.Conservatives continue demonstrating their contempt for the working poor.
If folks are doing that much better on unemployment, that says more about their employers paying poverty wages than anything else.Right because its "working poor" who aren't paying their rent right now.
Its leeches making more money doing nothing than they ever have in their lives refusing to pay for their homes provided to them by someone else. Stop being so gross.

Thats a different discussion. People were expected to pay their rent before and they did or they got evicted.If folks are doing that much better on unemployment, that says more about their employers paying poverty wages than anything else.
Fact is that landlords are a relic of feudalism, it's 2021 ffs, and people act like the country that put a man on the moon just so we could tell the Russians to suck it can't come up with a better system than this.Thats a different discussion.

No joke, I really wish my work had shut down during the pandemic so I could have got more money for contributing nothing. I'm so sick of people that think others should take care of them. Get a fucking job. Pay your damn rent. Use your covid welfare to pay for your shit.
Sounds an awful lot like you do want to see people becoming unhoused for the crime of placing their health and wellbeing over the passive income of property owners.I wasn’t sure how I felt about this ruling until I saw cori bush post “We were outside the Capitol for 5 days. Rain. Heat. Cold. If they think this partisan ruling is going to stop us from fighting to keep people housed, they’re wrong. Congress needs to act immediately. For every unhoused or soon to be unhoused person in our districts."
Then I knew this was the right call. Fuck that bitch. How many deadbeats have we been paying rent for? I don’t want to see anyone become “unhoused” but people are taking advantage of this and you know the money allocated to pay landlords goes to the wealthy first while the little guys struggle.

Ok but ealistically when landlords are forced to let people live in their property for free how are they going to pay taxes on them? How are they going to fix the property? Or pay the mortgage on it? Will there be a mortgage moratorium too or will the landlords just have to be out on the streets while someone lives in their rental property for free?
Sorry to bust everyone's bubble but landlords aren't all rich people swimming in vaults Scrooge Mcduck style.
Right. They did no work to buy it and do no work to maintain it . . . good grief.
My sister in law owns 3 rental properties. I've helped install flooring and countertops in one of them but otherwise all upkeep is done by contractors and paid for using the rent. The down payments for the initial properties came from an early inheritence.
I'm pretty sure this is very common. People who already have cash, invest in rental properties instead of bonds or stocks.
