It's Happening Again - Homes Lost - Some Rent Control Needed

[bodecea]

1. Not liberal, just common sense.
2. "Market" rate my ass. For housing, the market is secondary to survival.
3. They can, but they shouldnt, and they are creating "communities" filled with non-American migrants, who have no connection to America, and couldn't care less about it. About the same as if we had lost World War 2.
4. That's why we need to kick your asses.

You sound more and more like a commie here....................because it affects you personally.

We need to boot 20 million illegal aliens, to start.

And you need to stop pretending you're conservative.

He is lying if he says he is Conservative. Rent controls ain't Conservative policies.

 

[dblack]

No you don't. Even socialists don't want that.

They don't? I was reading a description of Democratic Socialism that claimed that they wanted to see "both society and the economy run democratically". That's pretty much everything, isn't it?

You want some control over capitalism.

No, I don't.

 

[Donald H]

Who cares? Stop your whining.

Their ain't no such thing as a free lunch and life ain't fair.

Nobody owes you a damn thing. Go find another $500 a month apartment if you don't want to pay for the one you are living in.

If you or the other people can't afford a decent place to live then they should have worked harder and prepared for their retirement better.

I am a retiree on a fixed income that is being fucked by Biden's inflation so I have no sympathy for other people's whining. I also get screwed with higher taxes and higher fees for other things. That is life.

At least I have enough in 401K where I can make up for the lost in purchasing power but my children and grandchildren that would have inherited it will get screwed all because of bad government.

Stop whining about your higher taxes and higher fees. If you had properly prepared for retirement you would be able to easily afford everything, including a BMW and the biggest screen t.v. to.

Oh, and you would still have a few hundred thousand to pass on in your will.

Oh yes they are. Rent controls are limitations on greedy and out of control American style capitalism.

You americans are just starting to leand that capitalism can't function without some controls.

 

[Concerned American]

I dont know if you have any idea how drastic the situation is here in the Tampa Bay area

I have a brother and a niece that have located to the Tampa area in the past 3 years. They purchased their properties and by what I see in photos, they are very nice homes. My brother is retired and my niece works in the local workforce, so don't whine to me because you spent like a striped assed monkey and didn't save for your retirement.

Fuck off duck. Take your socialist shit down the road. You aren't an American--stay out our business.

You need to read my post again because your reading comprehension sucks. I have prepared nicely but it is screwing my children and grandchildren out of some of their inheritiance.

Everybody gets fucked with bad Liberal government politics.

If you're reading about the problem, of unlimited capitalism requiring some healthy blend of socialism. That's the only way your country's people will ever be able to have health care for all, on the level with the world's leading countries, for just one example.

And speaking from experience in B.C., government car insurance is a slamdunk! You see, with government the profit can be built out as opposed to being built into the cost.
Good socially responsible is a treasure!

No, I don't.

Sure you do and that's why you're reading and trying to learn.

You are confused Moon Bat. Conservatives don't want the friggin government telling them how to run their lives.

Capitalism isn't neither fair or unfair. It is market realism. Socialism is unfair because it uses the filthy government to steal from the productive to give to the unproductive.

Damn, duck, I guess you really are a parasite.

That's a silly claim. And not true at all.

Sure you do and that's why you're reading and trying to learn.

Nope. I don't want government controlling society at all. The most novel and important premise of the US experiment is that it should work the other way around.

Good, you understand capitalism!
Now lie back and ve vill begin!

All of us capitalists eventually get to the fine tuning of our preferred form of government. Pure greedy uncontrolled capitalism has never worked. Even America has included some socialist policy.

Go quack yourself pissant.

 

[Concerned American]

Go quack yourself pissant.

Only if the Trudeau government pays me like they pay you, duck.

 

[Blues Man]

Never too late. I'm doing that now. (but not everyone can) And it requires moving to another state (big ordeal - the landlords should pay for it) - thy caused it)

Why does buying a house have to require moving to another state?

Why does buying a house have to require moving to another state?

More than likely the fixed income he's on wasn't available near there or the VA found a foreclosure for him. The later probably the case.

 

[protectionist]

Public housing with rent control.

It didn't work there either.

I'm not talking bout public housing.

 

[protectionist]

I doubt it.

No, of course not. But you have to understand how capitalism works, because your country subscribes to it!

Why would what be? I think you're going to come to an understanding that rent cotrols aren't consistent with a purely capitalist system. And from there it's an easy next step to understanding how socialism needs to be a part too. Are rent controls 'socialist' policy or are they dictatorial?

Suit yourself. If you can grasp what I'm telling you then it won't be nonsense to you anymore.

You came here late, and things you're talking about have already been addressed earlier in the thread (repeatedly). Briefly, the US is not a purely capitalist country. It (since at least the 1930s) is a combination of capitalism and socialism. Rent control has been in effect in some cities in America for over 100 years.

Listen you short sighted parasite, I have worked a similar track to yours. The difference, I thought about the future and planned for a secure future without going on the dole or expecting someone to provide for me. If you don't like the cost of rent, then LEAVE. No one has forced you to stay. If you had thought ahead and were willing to put up with the head aches and parasites, you could have been a landlord. Cry me a fucking river, loser.

I AM a landlord right now, but I'm not a greed freak idiot, who charges unreasonable rents that I know people cant pay. If the greed freaks had an ounce of decency, they would do as I, and other respectable landlords do.

And having some level of rent control is not parasiting. Quite the contrary it is the astronomical rents that landlords are charging that is the parasiting (I have never repeated myself so much as in this weird thread)

Your "LEAVE" blabber is another thing that has already been addressed a number of times here- try reading the thread before posting.
