Hopefully they can work something out to pay the small landlords, I know quite a few who were dependent on the rent for their retirement plans.
It’s funny how some people were able to get 10k to 100k in PPE loans within 2 to 3 weeks but landlords can’t get any thing and take months just to get a case worker for money owed to them..Just sad
@Osterlaich so if they have nothing to offer of value evicting the ones living in there valueless property won’t be a problem then
I guess landlords should have got bettet lobbyist, and made bigger donations.🤷♂️
The Qnut Majorie Taylor Greene’s family was given PPE money and they put 67% of that money into paying for her campaign. No wonder why Trumpsters stopped having anyone looking into how that money was spent.
Take the Money Back from the states and give it directly to the renters. Then if the renters don’t pay their rent, that’s something to look into. The states obviously Cannot be trusted with the money.
Repent and believe the Gospel. Jesus Christ is Lord! Amen.
@love Grace exactly! Cause it seems that the municipality of states aren’t giving help. I say there needs some investigation ongoing to see if the States allocating
Fraud is always a “concern” when it comes to helping people- never seems to be a problem with financial institutions- unregulated credit default swaps, collateralized debt obligations, etc pre 2008 financial meltdown anyone
Yes
The CDC needs to be abolished they are not a branch of Congress they do not have authority to make laws
@Skankhunt36 A federal agency declaring mandates that blatantly ignores a supreme court ruling is authoritarianism.
The CDC has not made any laws. They make recommendations that the feds have the authority to act on, and of course do. What kind of government would not have an agency like the CDC? We aren’t third world here. The CDC data is as reliable as any federal agency, which isn’t saying much. Besides, the feds can’t very well be telling us how bad Covid/Delta is and then throw families out on the street.
@PJ Celeste why are you completely ignoring the fact that this was already ruled on by scotus and ruled unconstitutional and illegal? You copy and pasting this doesn’t change that fact that it is and will always be illegal.
@Matt LOL! I didn’t copy and paste anything! As of July 28th the SCOTUS declined to block to eviction moratorium despite it being illegal. So what else is new? The government does all kinds of unconstitutional and illegal stuff. Blocking the press access to the southern border is unconstitutional. Heck, Biden signing the policy to open the border and release all detained illegal immigrants is unconstitutional. The people elected the House and Biden to make decisions on their behalf now the people have to live with those decisions.
@PJ Celeste the CDC is a terrorists organization they have no authority to recommend anything you Democrat boot licker 🤣
there are so many jobs nobody willing to work would be jobless.
Ah yes, the old tired argument of “let the people who were making good money then got laid off from COVID be forced to take up part time shifts at Dairy Queen for minimum wage, because those jobs need to be filled”.
Inflation is 5% but not raises. People are recognizing this and are demanding better quality pay. Low paying employers aren’t keeping up with the new workforce and inflation and are suffering the consequences
Meanwhile while Bezos takes a joy ride in space. Who’s side are you on? Surely it’s not the side of the American working class
Why are they better than those jobs?
Federal government paid millions to house immigrants but I can’t collect rent
I’m still waiting on my check for back rent on all my properties from the CDC.
This issue is in the hands of our States and counties. THEY need to hussle up.
Government housing for low income The Government wants Your Property for incoming Latan x.
If the government can decide to give away free rent in my buildings, then I can sell out — reinvesting into covid-proof stocks is a no brainer at this point.
i can really only see this as a way to force property owners into selling off said properties to whoever (blackrock et al) to get out of the potential debt this would incur long term.
Hedge funds are buying properties as they go for sale. Red states are with holding both monthly aid and rent. Typical. Rentals are insanely overpriced. It’s become disaster capitalism.
How about canceling property taxes for all landlords? Then the cities/counties can work it out.😀
Property taxes, mortgages, and utility bills!
They will never do that, as you and I are filthy landowners who need to pay for all these benefits.
They raised taxes 30% this year on my rental. Just got the letter a couple weeks ago.
Evict your tenants if they won’t pay rent. Let them take it to court. The Supreme Court already ruled that the CDC has no authority to order an eviction moratorium.
As a government agency the CDC only makes recommendations and the feds enact the moratorium, all nice and legal. Besides, the feds can’t very well tell us how bad Delta is and then allow families to be thrown out on the street. Tenants, landlords, utility companies and financial institutions have funds available to them to offset losses.
Right. But the problem is getting the funds.
@PJ Celeste Supreme Court has said moratorium is not legal. Legislation would have to be passed which wasn’t. No other person or company in the United States has been required to provide a good (rental property) to another for free during this pandemic. If fear of transmission, why is the Southern border open with no screening whatsoever? You
@Patricia McCutcheon On July 28th the Supreme Court decided not to block the eviction moratorium despite it being unconstitutional. This is nothing the government has not gotten away with many times before. Opening the border inviting illegal immigrants into the US and ordering detained illegal immigrants to be immediately released is unconstitutional. Banning the press fro the border is unconstitutional.
The local courts won’t even hear an eviction case. Our hands are tied
These are the people who are always behind on their rent, kick them to the curb.
Violating the US CONSTITUTION and the fact the that SCOTUS already ruled on this.
The government violating the Constitution has become normal now a days.
Wrong turn right “What’s a killer look like?” You tell me, maybe he went that away
It’s unconstitutional. Period. Even Biden said it. Yet they still did it. Lawlessness continues to run rampant.
We live under tyranny when an administration ignores the supreme court.
The cdc doesn’t have the right to strip Americans of their property. Because that’s what it is, taking my property and giving it to my renters.
I guess Biden and Congress forgot the Supreme Court already gave them time to fix this problem.
