    The lady who cuts my hair lived of ppp because she wasn’t allowed to cut hair. It was a life line for millions of people. If you were paid during Covid and were not working. Thank the ppp money.

    No, that does not mean that landlords are the ones who should manage it.

    Then who should manage it?

      That’s great but there was a shit ton of theft because trump neutered the watch dog. So a lot of it didn’t go where it should have.

        And then even more theft because Trump neutered the court’s ability to requisition records.

            That’s not a mask off moment. I have no interest in living in the projects. I’d rather rent a nice house in a nice neighborhood. I don’t want the government involved with my housing.

                I do not want the government involved in my housing.

                By default if the government owns it. It’s a project. That’s where the term comes from.

                I have no need for the government to supply housing as the free market does a better job. I lived in government housing in the military. No thank you.

                  We’ll just have to agree to disagree on that. The free market does a terrible job at providing housing. You must have just been lucky with your landlords before. The fact that this thread exists demonstrating how crazy high housing is shows that the free market isn’t great for providing housing.

                    Never had any issues. I just paid the rent and was left alone. Typically used rentals when I moved to a new area until I bought. If I didn’t plan to stay, I rented until I moved.

                    The last thing I want is the government in the rental market.

              yes, I will ignore the whole purpose of this conversation and instead let’s focus on how much I hate people who don’t look like me

                I never said anything about people who look like me. God that is a racist thing to say
