  1. Anyway, what's likely to happen is that those with back rent are evicted, (and have that on their record for years making it damn near impossible to rent again and probably pushing millions into homelessness) the landlords get newer tenants who can/will pay more in rent, and the government will make many or most landlords whole again without really helping those who got evicted. I look forward to Dems not getting the votes of these people in the future. It's bleak!
  2. I wonder what the NYC subway farebox recovery $ and % is, and how much they spend on policing for fare evasion (and related settlements for abuse)
  3. Long term we got to build more housing so we can really screw over landlords with low rents due to high supply
  4. It may be that, but also it's an excuse to drink cheap sparking wine and eat well prepared breakfast foods I would otherwise not eat because it's too much work to do it myself. Eggs Benedict, anything with lox and capers, even a high quality fried chicken and waffles.
  5. the arrogance and hypocrisy of some high profile democratic elected officials is enormously damaging
  6. There's funding, a lot of funding, for posting back rent that cities and states haven't distributed. maybe we should see about getting that out first before we start evictions And there's just the sheer scale of the problem, millions going through state violence due to no fault of their own but due to an economy that fell apart because of covid.
