Biden Proposing 5% Cap on Housing Rents

[Mikeoxenormous]

I'm paying $1,014/month. That's actually low by Tampa standards these days.

Tampa? No wonder you are being gouged. Time to move to a more rural area, where housing is way cheaper.

Because you say so? LMAO

If you think taxpayers or landlords are going to subsidize your rent because of your incessant whining, a tent is where you are going to end up. Now twist yourself into another pretzel pretending you don't understand common English. Moron.

Does it hurt when you twist yourself up in a pretzel and misconstrue a statement? Run along, you're nothing more than a common degenerate lying democrat and that post ^^^ proves it.

Because everybody KNOWS so (including you).

I didn't say anything about anybody subsidizing my rent, Where did you come up with that from ?

The real Democrats in this forum would get a blast out of you calling me a Democrat. HA. Hey, maybe YOU are a Democrat, by the way you have lined yourself up against the business community.

The exodus from Dem Covid lock down cities to Florida drove housing prices in Florida through the roof. That's not greedy landlords, that's supply and demand.

 

[Mikeoxenormous]

Highway robbery, grand larceny, total rip-off, plunder, pillaging, sacking, looting............all of the above.

I must say that in Tampa, many snow birds ended up moving there, thus "Supply and Demand" have caused higher prices, that people are willing to pay.

More than 9,000 additional people moved into the area than out during the first two months of 2022, Redfin found, compared to about 6,000 during the same period a year ago.

I find it amazing that anyone would have the audacity and foolishness to come into a forum thread, and try to dump the BS you're giving us here.

Just because you allow yourself to be DUPED into this age-old crap, total bullshit of expenses causing $1000/month rent increases doesn't mean all the rest of us are stupid enough to swallow that. That might fly for 2010 or 2015, but 2024 ? NO! Not with THESE kind of rent increases. And I'm an ex-New Yorker from the big city. We don't snow easily.

You are living in the top 10 hottest housing markets in the country and crying about rents increasing? That's retarded. Welcome to the real world.

 

[protectionist]

What i am saying is you are going to have to suffer a little while longer, and hope the 2024 election doesnt get stolen like it did in 2020. With a new President, he will get energy prices down, which food prices will follow, and then other goods and services will follow.

Oh, no doubt Trump will fix the inflation of gas prices and food. I'm not so sure about new home sales and housing rents though. We can hope.
In any case, 'm rooting for Trump. I can't stand Biden, Obama, Harris, and the whole rat pack of them.

 

[progressive hunter]

This proposal is potent. There are 112 Million renters in America (34% of the total population).
There are also 32.2 Million businesses. Together these translate into a ton of votes.

If Trump does not reciprocate and propose a rent control law himself (of 5% or lower), he could be handing Biden the election. After the astronomical rent increases of the last few years, to renters and business owners, this is the most serious issue in America. Both have taken a huge hit economically, by the enormously higher rents.

Biden to call for 5% cap on annual rent increases, a critical issue for voters

Corporate landlords would lose the ability to write off depreciation values from their units if they increase tenants' rent more than 5%.

Decade in review: Number of U.S. renters surpasses 100 million - HousingWire

A recent Rentcafé study shows renter rates have climbed across the country as more and more Americans are now choosing to rent instead of own.

thats sounds very fascist to me,,

Rent control is subsidized rent. The landlord is subsidizing you at his expense. You keep speaking like you speak for the business community. Linkie to where they made you their spokesperson? You are a democrat, and a whiny NYer, no one whines better. YOU are part of the problem in FL.

Yeah, this doesnt help the housing rent situation + there was also swarms of Biden's illegal aliens who got flown in here. I hope they're not still coming in.

 

[sartre play]

Trump MUST reciprocate with his own rent cap law. I would hate to see Biden steal the election (legally), just by advocating a very popular (and needed) reform.

Also, if Trump is to show that he s a man of the people, and a protector of business interests, he will have to parallel Biden on this issue.

Trump has never even had to shop/ buy a quart of milk for him self, much less do anything to help regular working folks. get real!

Yeah. It is fascist the way they boost the rents way up, and nobody can stop them.

If everyone is doing better, then people will start moving around the United States again, because they will have more expendable money to work with.

So why would a billionaire like Donald Trump take a very large pay cut in working for the United States, while Joe Bribem was selling out the United States to China, Russia and Iran, so he and Joe Bribem's family could make millions? You really must be a retard to think otherwise.

[progressive hunter]

you obviously dont know what fascism is or how it works,,

when the government dictates how private businesses price their goods or services is called fascism,,

a private person or company deciding what they will charge for their products or services is called freedom,,

youre a fascist and dont even know it,,

 

[protectionist]

If everyone is doing better, then people will start moving around the United States again, because they will have more expendable money to work with.

I hope that doesn't mean more people moving here (Tampa, Florida). Our traffic is congested enough now as it is. Stores are crowded too - especially Walmart.

 

[Mikeoxenormous]

Yeah, this doesnt help the housing rent situation + there was also swarms of Biden's illegal aliens who got flown in here. I hope they're not still coming in.

Especially when they are given free rent by the government of Joe Bribem, while you and I have to pay the rent and taxes to support them.

You are a fool, and don't even know it.

You see what my display name is ? Well, that is what government's #1 function is. To PROTECT the people, And as a few posters have agreed with me here, the people need protection from rent gouging landlords more than anything right now.

Have you read through this thread, or are you just jumping in here cold now ? Do you know what has been said in this thread ?
Sam Ash Music ? Walgreens ?

Maybe a rent cap wouldn't sound so fascist to you if you were one of the thousands of Sam Ash employees who worked there for 20 years, and just lost their job. Ditto with Walgreens. Ditto with people forced out of their homes, and having to find a new place to live.

There's a lot more going on here, than you seem to be taking any notice of.

They are getting more than that. In New York, those sanctuary idiots are giving them prepaid credit cards.

so youre an idiot too,,

their job is to protect our rights not our personal business,,

what you want is a free or easy ride off of other people efforts
