Stimulus checks on the way? I sure hope so.

[Markle]

You bring up fantasy stories. First of all, the landlords would get a stimulus check too. So in that regard, both landlords and renters would be on equal ground. And what if no checks went out whatsoever. Where would the landlords be then. Wherever it is, the renters would be worse off.

Next, I had a friend once who had a son that was friends with the son of a landlord. He told my friend's son once that all his father had to do for a living was collect money. In other words, a parasite. Such people are most likely to have more money than they know what to do with. And if they actually do get into a pinch, let them sell that priceless antique they probably own or that vacation home they probably own to get them through until things turn around. Also, sure they provide people with a home. For a PROFIT! That's why they do what they do. It isn't out of charity.

You are off in a fantasy world taught to you by the far-left media.

I have to believe that you are being facetious, you cannot possibly be serious with that outrageous post.

Fantasy world? Tell me anything I said that you think is untrue.

What is untrue? Well...start with, "You bring up fantasy stories" and end with, "It isn't out of charity." Will that get you started?

Well the fairy story part is true. And that landlords don't do what they do out of charity is true also. Anything else?

In what fantasy world do you live? Do you work for free? Why would anyone work to buy a rental property and make monthly mortgage payments, along with the maintenance in order to provide a free place for someone else to live?

What manufacturing jobs. They've mostly been sent overseas. To wage slave countries. Countries with lax environmental laws. (If any at all) And where child labor is still plentiful. Also, my state recently became a "right to work" state. Which means no unions. Basically it has become a right to get fucked in the ass state.

No, the jobs weren't sent overseas, they were taken from us by other countries. It is a world economy, something unions could not figure out.

If unions are so good, why are states with right to work laws, doing so much better fiscally than those with unions?



So, what is your solution. Please don't respond, "UNIONS" because workers have shown they do not want or need them.

Yes, our jobs WERE sent over seas. You could even say that they were sucked overseas. It is just as Ross Perot predicted when he was running against Clinton. He said that if Clinton got his way, a huge sucking sound would be heard as jobs left the U.S. And that's exactly what happened. And much of the machinery that we made things with was sent over seas too. They weren't taken, but sent.

Next, if right to get fucked in the ass states do better than union states, (as if union states even existed) it is because companies prefer to set up shop in states where they can pay their workers as little as possible. Next, the solution is UNIONS! No worker in his right mind wouldn't want to belong to a union. Because unions give workers some security. Now if workers were given a choice between working without a union or not working with a union, of course they are going to choose to work. Everything should be unionized. That way there would be no choice to make. In some countries, unions are actually required.

Also, if there is something that can't be made in America, Americans don't need it. And there isn't anything that Americans can't make. Another thing is that as a matter of national security, whatever Americans may need should be made here. So we don't become dependent on other countries. Or give them the ability to basically hold the U.S. over a barrel. Also, Americans shouldn't lose the ability to make things by having other countries do so. But if you still don't like unions, I have another idea. National Socialism.

Let us ALL remember that $20 per hour in today's america is a miserable pathetic pittance.

For that do not expect a good effort.

This help should have come months ago...but Pelosi didn't want Trump to get the credit before the election...tell me libs...is that evil?.....

BS, Moscow Mitch said the states should go bankrupt. Moscow Mitch recommends the "skinny bill".

Pelosi had a lot of pork related to the new green deal stuck in the bill and refused to take any of it out.

I really blame her as she said she knew it wouldn't pass and she said it would take Trump down. Politics over people, that is what she is about. Now, she is ready to compromise now that the elections are over.

Politicians don't give a damn about you or your needs, only their power.

And that goes for BOTH sides papa. Time to oyst wealthy men from running for office.

On the news last night they said that another round of stimulus checks has found its way into stimulus package negotiations. And is likely to happen. I sure hope so. I really need the money. But they said that it wasn't going to be another $1200 dollar stimulus check. Rather, a $600 or $700 dollar check. Well something is better than nothing. But here is my advice to you. Use the money for yourself. Stock the cupboards. Buy your kids shoes or whatever. And if your landlord or whoever you may owe money to comes around looking for your stimulus check, just tell them you didn't receive one.

As for the 6 or 7 hundred dollar stimulus check, (if it happens) who knows. Once Biden is sworn in and if the democrats gain the majority of the Senate, maybe they will make up the difference with another round of 6 or 7 hundred dollar stimulus checks. After all, they gave out $1200 before. And economically, far more people are in an economic pinch now than they were way back when the $1200 dollar stimulus checks first went out.

Right, because God forbid you lazy dregs would go get an actual job.

The clarion call of the murderous trumpanzees. Get a job. Translated, "Go forth and die!"

So now we know your true Red China stripes, as figures by your comment. Down here in Floor E. Da. we have open business where people are happy and content, not having to sit home like a miserable prog slave hoping that Nancy Pillosi will throw them a bone. Come on man, wake the fuck up and be a true America and ditch the Dimwitocrap party and stop being a loser....

Well murderous trumpanzee, yesterday they said on the news that over 3600 people died in one day. And don't worry, it will get even worse. But not bad enough for you I assume. You will probably just listen to that song by the Drowning Pool. Where the main chorus of the song is, "LET THE BODIES HIT THE FLOOR! LET THE BODIES HIT THE FLOOR!"

Let us ALL remember that $20 per hour in today's america is a miserable pathetic pittance.

I was telling somebody around here about something I saw on TV a while back. They said that in California, to live a normal middle class livelihood, somebody would have to make $50.00 an hour. (And I don't imagine its a whole lot different in the rest of the U.S.) But with so many basically legal illegals living there who are willing to work for FAR less, there isn't much chance of that happening.

What other reason does one make such a huge investment in money, time, and risk?

 

[justinacolmena]

Landlords are “typically” investors, that is true, but they are providing housing on a short-term or longer-term space-efficient basis in situations where it is more economical for indivduals and couples than building or buying their own housing outright. Vice is rampant, and landlords are basically pimps.

What. Do you need a lesson in economics? Well I'm the person to provide it. And here it is. Some people just have money. To turn it into more money without needing an ounce of brains, all you have to do is get a bank loan or outright buy property to rent. Once you have money rolling in from that, you can buy even more property to rent. For morons like Trump, they actually made billions doing so. Here is something else to consider. You have probably seen what are basically shacks in poor neighborhoods in places like India or Brazil. I have no doubt that many of even those hovels are owned by somebody else and charge the poor people who live in them rent.

But, people who can demand $50 an hour and get it are not competing with the jobs illegals might be working.

A trained monkey could make $50.00 dollars an hour. Any company willing to pay an American that kind of wage would probably prefer to train and employ an illegal who would be willing to do so for $15.00 an hour. Also, consider this. At one time there were American car companies here in America who hired Americans to work in their factories. Unionized labor. If they were around today, workers in their factories would be making at least $50.00 dollars an hour. And it took hardly any brainpower to do any of those jobs. Once they showed you what needed to be done, you just did it. You could basically shut your brain off until the end of the work day.

Also, I had a friend who was an industrial painter. He told me about times when he would be up in the steel framework of a GM factory ceiling to paint it. He told me of workers he saw who were actually asleep at their machines while the machines did their thing. That's how difficult some of those jobs were.

Another thing is that in a capitalist society, anybody willing to work for less will almost certainly be utilized. Cheap labor will then work its way up the food chain. Also, I heard that back when South Africa was still a White run country, mines there hired many African workers. I also heard that they didn't pay them very well. But none dared quit. Or even strike for better pay. Because no matter how bad working conditions or pay supposedly was, there were hordes of other blacks who were more than willing to take their jobs.

I have Bachelor of Science degrees in Mathematics and Computer Science, and I don't make any more than $15.00/hour since I was “served” with an MH diagnosis at law some 20 years ago. An MH record is even worse than a violent felony record looking for a job.

I don't know what a "MH diagnosis" is. Also, I don't think that anything less than a masters degree is really worth anything to companies. Here is something else to consider. It takes quite a bit of training to become an engineer. And then you would probably have to specialize in some particular branch of science. From what I saw on some news program about China, they apparently have hordes of unemployed engineers. That's a lot of training to go through to just end up unemployed. Good thing they didn't have to pay for their education like we do in the U.S.

Bullshit globalist media crap to make us think that low wage nations have more qualified people than the US...total bullshit.
Most of our Big Tech companies had to hire Americans in the last several years and made bigger strides than they did since GW.
Americans are the best and if another nation does have someone that exceptional, that person will float to the top.

I say bullshit to your bullshit. China has just plain hordes, period. So why wouldn't they have hordes of unemployed engineers. Also, I heard some time ago that there was a lack of doctors and nurses in this country. Here is something else to consider. But is comes from PBS. So you might reject it anyway.

There is a website that says, "America's increase in college degree holders lags behind national goals." In the article it says, "The rate at which Americans are earning two and four year degrees continues to lag stubbornly behind what's needed to meet national goals, and declining college and university enrollments threaten to make things worse." Why should Americans go to school to learn to make anything when they're already made overseas to begin with. And by people earning FAR less pay than what an American would expect.

And then pimps got medical degrees and whores donned scrubs and washed their hands to help out.

The lack of talent in the US has been a myth since Reagan in order to open our borders to cheap foreign labor.
You might try looking into the corporations who have been preaching this bullshit.
I have personally never run into a lack of any professionals throughout my 60 years.
The fact that Asia pays people slave wages is not our problem.
