Wow the article actually sites homeowner ship as why people become involved in local elections and that is bad. When involved in local politics homeowners prevent programs that create affordable housing.

The spin and twist on this is insane.

They are trying to create a slave class that has no identity to community or the ability to build large families.

I remember when I owned nothing. I was not happy.

So, home ownership cures communism. Good to know.

Yeah, must be bad. Here in Germany, houses aren't affordable anymore (except you wanna be in debt for the rest of your life). In my town, building a new house starts at €300.000, but for a fam of four, some garden, a carport... €400-450.000 is the price point. And I live in a small town... That's insane. My grandpa built two houses, paid in full at the age of 45. Not possible anymore. Slavery begins with the denial of ownership.

Next step; turn millions of homeowners into renters - by creating a mortgage crisis bigger than 2008, with more foreclosures than ever before.

In 2020 and 2021 - people have been overpaying for houses by $20,000 and often, even more than that - when the market is "rebalanced," people will be looking for ways out of losing money on their investment and will take the dent in their credit to simply foreclose on their loans, and home prices will be plummeting even lower than that.

Blackrock has helped by buying out Landlords who are no longer comfortable knowing about the temporary complications regarding evictions.

The time to sell is rapidly coming to a close - if you haven't already, sell now - and if it's your thing, fulfill your dream of living in an RV full time for a bit. If you spend $34,000 today, you can sell it for $27,000 "tomorrow," which is better than seeing your $340,000 investment become worth only $270,000.

Such rank BS. Don't own a home and you won't care about homeless encampment and run down neighborhoods. Home ownership makes you a bigot and too prideful in what you worked so hard to achieve.

NCSWIC. Stay focused. We Got This. Pass the popcorn and save the water!

I didn’t buy a house for an investment. I bought it for a place for me and my family to live. I don’t care if some masked dickbag comes by and decides my house is contagious and thus only worth $20, I’m not selling it, so Blackrock can go fuck themselves.

Fuck those communist bastards, if they want to live in a gulag leave us out of it. They can reap the "rewards." inside these places if they wish to.

What a stupid article! And somebody got paid to write this crap.

Owning a home is/was part of the American Dream. I love my home. Step on my property and try and take it from me. Perhaps that is the reason why my brother bought me a mat that read "Go Away". LOL

MSM can go fuck themselves

I took a cultural anthropology course in college that used the example of shows like "Leave it to Beaver" as proof that white supremacy and land ownership were destroying our country...no joke. The same course also used the example of the black crows in "Dumbo" as proof of racism towards black people. They went on to say that "Hasta la vista baby" was a prime example of "linguistic racism" in our society. I argued that 1941 (Dumbo), 1957 (Leave it to Beaver), and 1991 (Terminator 2) were very different times for our culture and shouldn't be used as a reflection of current society. I was then forever labeled a racist by my classmates and my professor.

I could give dozens of examples of this nonsense from my last 3 years of college. They started critical race theory LONG before that term was invented. Even the ancient Egyptians were racist because they depicted people as having different skin tones in their murals. And Herodotus was racist because he described a certain "dark-skinned" people in rural India who apparently had sex out in the open "as cattle do". The professor said this was proof of his racist undertones. I argued it was nothing more than an accurate observation by one of the first anthropologists.

Take a look at all the absolute worst areas to live and you will always find a high percentage of renters.
