Trump budget would slash rental aid by 40% — and let states fill the gap if they want

sure

The proposal comes as nearly half of all renters are considered cost-burdened and as homelessness is at a record high. Advocates say that if millions of poor people barely making ends meet were to suddenly see their rental aid shrink — or even end altogether — it would tip many over the edge.

"We would see, I think, homelessness escalate in a way that has been really unprecedented, and unheard of," said Kim Johnson, policy manager with the National Low Income Housing Coalition.
No, if their rental aid shrunk - IOW, less taxpayer money going to the landlord - landlords would not be able to charge $3500 for a dumpy apartment.

Costs rise when you subsidize.
 
We have a pretty good social net in this country. Right? We still need rich people to power the economy. It's better than the alternative
Beggars believe Mexico’s people should be able to drive a Mercedes on a weed pullers wage with taxpayer subsidization.
They don't understand this.
Only in the United States can “poor” people be morbidly obese, smoke cigarettes and weed, drink Modelos by the case, own iphones and drive Cadillacs.
Trickle down, right?
I never understood the disdain…What’s wrong with trickle down?
You certainly can’t think trickle up could work…right?

They will never learn

Trickle down would certainly be better than nothing down.
 
I paid for a black woman's clothes and groceries today. I passed on the opportunity to do the same for a white person.

FYI, all real estate is going down some. There no way it won't be.
By a significant percentage. Somewhere between 15% and 35% I'd say.

It’s also condescending. She sees a black woman and decides she needs charity.
