“People simply cannot afford to live anymore,” Rep. Bowman in letter with Elizabeth Warren urging Biden to address the extortionate increase in rents

[Moonglow]

Yeah, but WHEN did you buy?
How much was the total?
How much was your downpay?
What is your percentage rate?
How long is the mortgage?

Data mining are we?

 

[Moonglow]

It took a lot to kill Carter's stagflation.

It was the ripple effect of Nixon's price controls....

 

[Moonglow]

How is Biden going to fight to lower rents?

He charged his own freakin' son almost 50K per month to live in this house:

Does illegally storing classified documents really increase the rent value of a home that much?

There is a ghost that lives there for free.

Have you EVER known ANY government NOT to fuck something up?????

To UNfuck it all up............who ever is in office would have to enact a state of emergency for the whole nation, and shut the doors to the country, take charge, and kick ass for no less than 15 years, to even GET NEAR being where we want to be again.

And that aint happening, no matter WHO is in office.

Anything Trump or Desantis will do, will be a short fix. Nothing more. Like Trumps term. Short fixes. He didn't put anything on paper because he was too busy deflecting Democrat bullshit. But, if he DOES get a second term, he's had plenty of time to get things in order and ready to go once his ass hits the Oval Office chair! One can only hope..............

Have you EVER known ANY government NOT to fuck something up?????

No. Especially when they're setting prices.
Makes me wonder why you would be in favor of that?

You aren't very good at reading what someone writes, are you. Only what you want to read.

 

[Toddsterpatriot]

You aren't very good at reading what someone writes, are you. Only what you want to read.

Whoever gets into the White House in 2024/2025 will HAVE to enact a FEDERAL minimum wage at $22.00 an hour and stifle price hikes for their term in office on everything.

Who wrote ^ this?

Bowman and tenant advocates argue that modest declines in rents – the national median fell 0.8 percent in December – barely make a dent in tenants’ expenses after the eye-popping gains of the last few years.

“The Rent Is Too High”: Warren, Bowman Ask Biden to Fight Crushing Housing Costs

The lawmakers warn that homelessness will continue to worsen as long as housing prices rise unmitigated.

IDK maybe since there seems to be a discrepancy between what Hunter and Biden claim were the rent and what Joe's taxes showed as the rent.

I went shopping this morning and could not believe what two bags of groceries cost me.... just a couple of plastic bags of grapes were $17 alone....
Thanks a lot Biden voters... I hope you all lose everything....

Look somewhere else to shop. Not kidding. Lidl and Aldo are still cheapish in comparison. Look for local groceries in old parts of town. I seldom walk into a name-brand supermarket anymore they are so outragious (other than Aldi but they are reasonable on most things)

 

[WTH_Progs?]

Yeah, show me that 10.5% unemployment rate and 20% prime lending rate of Biden's.

Ah, nice try dumbshit. Out of context.

Yes. Just read today that inflation is all the way down to 6.5%. Yeah Biden! It is very comforting to know that already high rents will now be only going up another 6.5%, instead of higher. Time to bow down to Biden five times per day. According to him, inflation is now below zero. Seriously though, time for Biden to claim that landlords are price gouging, even after losing tons of money due to non paid rents during the pandemic. Surely it must be all the fault of greedy landlords.

So obvious, then you can easily explain why..............GO!

 

[WEATHER53]

I am CORRECT.
I've had friends have to move because they couldn't afford the hikes.
The manager of my apartments now, said she's had many of the residents here ask if theres anything available, because THEIR friends and family can't afford the rent hikes.
A friend of mine had to sell her house last fall, and had to find an apartment. And she told me there's nothing out there any cheaper than $1200.00 a month in bad areas, and the average was $1500 - $1700 a month for a ONE bedroom.

What it is now means little unless compared to past and as always we have Another USMB member who “has friends who have”. There are legal dictates for leases and you offer a sappy emotive rendition of “others” who had rents double and triple and that’s Absolutely Not Happening in the real estate market.
If someone is willing to pay what the owner asks then Good for the owner and be damned this weepy “others did not get it because….sniff…sniff …they could not afford it”
Cut out the $500 hair braiding and pay for your housing.

This is going to end very badly.

The renters are accumulating crippling debt. They are going to have to pay all that back rent sooner or later. They are going to end up homeless when the moratorium ends. The Democrats are delaying the inevitable and destroying property owners in the process. The longer this moratorium drags on, the more small business owners will be plowed under.

Individual landlords are going broke. They will go out of business and their properties are going to be hoovered up by LLCs and LLPs who will then drive up rents which the current soon-to-be homeless renters won't be able to afford.

The winners in this rolling train wreck will be rich investors.

TA-DAAAAAAA!

 

[WEATHER53]

Joe is for higher rents on the order of $49,000 monthly

 

[Missouri_Mike]

The rich are taking everything from the poor and middle class. They're thiefs and the government needs to take action to make sure that we don't become a third world country where there's only a very poor and a small super rich elite. Rents should be kept low and government should step in to build government housing if need be.

It’s almost like you’ve never paid attention to socialist history.

You're a fucking commie. Move to Cuba or North Korea if that's the kind of country you want to live in.

With you wishing that someone lose everything, let's hope karma bits you right in your fat ass.
And now back on topic.
Seems most people have forgotten the 2008 housing crisis.
The real causes of the housing and financial crisis were predatory private mortgage lending and unregulated markets ...
Sure seems like history is going to repeat itself.
