Rent caps? I'm dubious, but I'll add it.Affordable housing for the middle class and working class through both rent control and loans less than 50K. There are those that can afford the mortgage payments but cannot afford the down payment because the rent keeps getting jacked up. The ability to purchase homes instead of dealing with a landlord will allow people to invest in their own property which slum lords don't like to do, reduce crime by anchoring people rather than have a high turnover or transient population and pay property taxes.
Look everyone! The troll changed his plan and is now compiling a list. He's dutifully turning your well thought out replies into bumper stickers.....that he will present after a day or so as the left's prescription for the middle class!
Let's see what he's got so far:
1. Raise taxes on the rich. ( transaction tax )
2. More handouts to the poor...especially minorities. ( rent caps )
3. Steal stuff and give it to those who didn't earn it. ( Ben Franklin quote )
How am I doin?
How are you doin'? Frankly, you sound panicked.
Given a sounding board to express their thoughts, self-described lefties here have openly promoted all manner of socialist thought. I saw no one suggest that minorities get an extra dose of the confiscated loot but I will still give you credit for summing up their thoughts. I will get busy printing those bumper stickers.
Hey, I'll make a fortune selling them!
Thanks.
Ain't capitalism grand?
