, <living desperately lonely lives (often childless and single)> Some of them due to getting robbed of all they worked for by family court.
182
And bleeding-hearts and leftists that encourage it.
19
<I was lucky to get this place 11 years ago at a really cheap rent that was never raised> Which is probably the reason the owner sold the place. He could no longer keep the rents cheap in the face of mounting costs to maintain it and cover basic operating expenses.
14
And also blame the women all too happy to participate in it if it means they don't have to work a day job.
9
After government mismanagement, privatization and austerity were inevitable.
8
It wasn't England's fault that Scotland went bankrupt the last time it was independent and let itself be bought out.
8
The same men relegated to living in a tent under the bridge thanks to family court?
7
But didn't have the foresight to save for that rainy day.
7
In comparison to how they treated their own citizens.
6
It's easier to ****/marry their way to wealth than work for it.
5
Shame on the women who choose to date losers and abusers and then complain about being forced to live with the consequences.
5
Yet you're begging to be controlled by Brussels?
5
He obviously never heard of the Arab Slave Trade.
4
The same BRICS with South Africa having millions of people left in the dark due to loadshedding?
4
And then there are people who live beyond their means. The complain about not being able to pay the rent yet they have little problem being able to pay for luxuries.
4
Housing is not a right as the woman in video proved. Even the government denied her.
4
How so? Private landlords own the property.
4
Social programs don't alleviate but exacerbate poverty.
3
@estonetcyber1835 No you wouldn't. Your lack of human capital is the reason Africa was a backwater long before any European bothered to show his face and largely still is after independence.
3
For what? Cuba has agency.
3
Tell that to the Ndebele people that got slaughtered by his North Korea-trained 5th brigade.
3
Abolish alimony. Abolish no-fault divorce.
3
Um. It's 2024. Not 1724. Humans cannot survive without it.
3
@@Alexis47620 Namely where all the Trump-haters live.
3
Yes. Make things scarce and expensive.
3
A lot of women brought it upon themselves and it's unfortunate that children have to pay the price for their mothers' poor decisions.
3
@Joe-tr2vk What self-sufficiency? North Korea is just surviving off of Chinese subsidies.
3
Because the rich invest while the poor spend all they have.
2
While Labour care about the poor only because they're easy to manipulate and exploit for power.
2
@anyadarr2448 <There is a chronic shortage of housing> Due to government meddling that restricted housing supply and discourage new building of housing.
2
No. Just in the Western world.
2
So is financial planning.
2
@zoid3515 Not really. The truth is a lot of people are generally lousy with money and much of their poverty is due to that.
2
<People working hard > But no money saved for that rainy day.
2
Mobutu was considered a dictator yet aligned with the West.
2
@Bane1Mirin Yet they have little problem finding the money to pay for booze, eating out and escorts.
2
@Ken_oh545 Living beyond their means.
2
Feminism laid the foundation for it. Welfare and family court enabled and encouraged it. Abolish alimony. Abolish no-fault divorce.
2
@hodbarkleaf2714 He didn't have such issues during his 30's and 40's.
2
Social assistance is the father.
2
And local zoning restrictions.
2
You as in the Cuban government with external factors as cover for mismanagement and repression.
2
The Royal family is not responsible for national economic policy or people's personal choices.
2
Sure you will!
2
The same one that left Britain bankrupt having to run to the IMF for a bailout in the 1970's?
2
It's called getting a return on their investment.
2
LOL. The same left-wing party that was responsible for bankrupting the UK in 60's and 70's?
2
In other words, they tried to marry/** their way to prosperity and it blew up in their faces.
2
How is high taxes and government meddling capitalism?
2
No more greedier than the government who jacks up the property taxes and restrictions.
2
Welfare enables and encourages irresponsibility.
2
Don't you just love welfare?
2
Exactly.
2
Complacency.
2
@whatsleft100 So much for housing being a right.
2
You're better off being an owner in the long run.
2
@i_got_worms7106 Also, marriage/relationship and prostitution are viable choices.
2
Like the average Cuban.
2
@alexandrabellerose3550 Landlords are not obligated to rent to her regardless of what she's willing to offer upfront.
2
@alexandrabellerose3550 Landlords have every right to turn you down.
2
Francisco Macias Nguema = Pol Pot 2.0
2
And access to welfare is cut off.
2
@joe5923 Pretty much.
2
Probably sleeping in a tent under the bridge after getting screwed over by family court.
2
At who's expense?
2
Yeah! How dare they run a business like a business and actually make money? <and not thinking about other peoples situation what if you was in their shoes> It's not their responsibility. And many of those other people you want them to think about are in their situations due to their own poor management of personal finances with living beyond their means being one of the reasons.
2
No.
2
If so, then whoever's forced to provide it against their will should have the basic human right to set the terms and conditions it will be provided under.
2
Or Mussolini. Or Ceausescu.
2
Where have you been for the last 2500+ years?
2
The UK already did that. They're most likely sleeping in a tent under the bridge after family court stripped them of all they have.
2
@mattiaslp9645 Let alone buy their own property, because they don't want the financial and legal responsibilities that come with it.
2
@henryabbot8083 No. Secularism, science and democracy are what got society in this mess.
2
Tony Montana Yet Atheism killed more people than any religion ever did.
1
@ enator71 That's only because back then, the life expectancy was much shorter. You were legally considered an adult at 13 and was considered elderly upon your 35th birthday.
1
LOL. You're joking, right?
1
No. People are dying by the hundreds of thousands because of government meddling. <Energy companies must be stopped in their criminality.> Energy companies are indirectly owned by the government. <The Government are not regulating the criminals.> Because government enabled those criminals by overtaxing and over-regulating everyone else out of the market. The tax-the-rich policies the people support.
1
So? Somalia is not their problem.
1
@karen8157 Doesn't make the poster any less right. Welfare was meant to be a temporary measure to help people down on their luck get back on their feet, not a viable lifestyle choice for the lazy, immature and irresponsible at society's expense. It's disgusting how the left use welfare to justify theft from those who work and produce for a living to win votes from those who waste time and take up space for a living.
1
@nudisco300 <The father of any child needs to be made legally responsible for the housing of their off spring. NOT THE TAXPAYER.> He already has been. By family court.
1
@Alexander-nl5yy <governments selling off state industries, > After mismanaging them into insolvency.
1
No. It's just a Western thing.
1
And watch it get squandered with you taxing your no-completely poor neighbors afterwards.
1
Exactly.
1
@starrwinter Housing is not a right. And the woman with 6 months worth of rent saved up proved it.
1
Not really. And so much for housing being a right.
1
And so is a lot of their voter base.
1
Probably living in a tent thanks to family court.
1
@shanepatrick641 So is socialism on top of being unsustainable as whatever prosperity it does enjoy seldom lasts.
1
Including personal greed on the part of tenants.
1
LOL. <Ban landlords.> While making the government the landlord by default.
1
@richardd7614 Cuba and Venezuela for two and three.
1
People would still go hungry as all this does is encourage dependency and entitlement. Plus, it's not the celebrities' or influencers' job to feed them.
1
<We need rent control, > Just like you need subsequent shortages and nothing to rent even if you could afford the higher prices.
1
Tory austery is the consequence of Labour fiscal mismanagement.
1
@lochnessmunster1189 LOL. Exactly.
1
No. You have nothing to lose except your freedom and personal agency as under communism you'll become state property.
1
It worked out for the women in Germany.
1
LOL.
1
@thulidlamini6001 Only because his OG plan to overthrow the Apartheid regime and establish communism died with the Soviet collapse and support.
1
<when we have people in other countries who haven't eaten in weeks.> Who's we? And those people in other countries need to take that issue up with their own governments, that's if they're even legally allowed to protest.
1
@pippah447 Hardly. Women are strong and independent now. They can fend for themselves like the equals they swear they are.
1
At the hands of their own government.
1
How many minorities does Korea have?
1
LOL. Technology will not save humanity.
1
@Freedomisintelligence No it won't as technology eventually breaks down and can be used for evil.
1
Keep voting for leftists and there will be more where that came from.
1
LOL. Not according to society that conveniently delegated care to the government and private institutions.
1
No. Government meddling is killing the industry.
1
Thanks Canada's immigration laws for that.
1
@DeeDee-2 LOL. Hardly any Americans are risking death to get Cuban healthcare. They go to Mexico. Healthcare may be free, but unreliable as F.
1
No. His nephew overthrew him.
1
It's just payback for what white people did to others.
1
@frmcf Women seldom do precarious work.
1
@joso7228 Which they played a prominent role?
1
@trevorwills3356 He may not be eligible for social housing.
1
@Skygrey2943 But Iran is nowhere nearly as badly off as Cuba.
1
@michaelgrabianowski6567 And further enrich the regime as the military owns many of the businesses in Cuba?
1
@Skygrey2943 Castro killed whatever industry Cuba had including the sugar one.
1
Not really.
1
@angelbiscuits Yes it is.
1
No. The government created poverty and homelessness. It was all by legislation.
1
Abolish welfare and alimony.
1
Exactly.
1
@ValyrianCode While starving and massacring their own people in the process. Just because they have some personal beef with the West does not excuse their own crimes against humanity.
1
You misspelled socialism which actually has what you accuse capitalism of.
1
@TiredEnigma Cuba. Food = still relies on US aid. Home = crumbling and lacking basic utilities. Healthcare = only for tourists and bureaucrats.
1
They're not entirely wrong, though. A lot of people don't save during their working years living for the moment and then end up paying the price at retirement.
1
<One wonders how the rich and privileged square their consciences, knowing that there is so much hardship in the world? ...> Simple. They don't owe anyone a damn thing.
1
@marcse7en They don't have any less of a conscience than anyone else.
1
Because the rich save and especially invest while the poor spend all they have.
1
@raghvirlalli9275 Living in London is a privilege.
1
Well, China is not doing too good right now. And Xi is taking the country back to the days of Mao.
1
LOL. China cares nothing about the people. Its elderly are left to beg on the streets at the outskirts of cities, because the government took their pensions.
1
@sheilaboston7051 That was to pay off the debt incurred during WW2. Once it was paid off, there was no justified reason to keep it around.
1
Socialism has been tried already and proven itself to be non-viable.
1
LOL. <fight for a socialist alternative.> And then go bankrupt having to apply for an IMF bailout within a generation.
1
@GavinGas People spend their money foolishly and then have the nerve to complain about being broke, hungry and needy.
1
He was.
1
No it's not and certainly not to the same degree.
1
Provided by the very same men they love to trash-talk.
1
@Mikamichae No. Nice assumption, though!
1
@porkyscratchins1303 WTF are YOU talking about?
1
Well, that money has to come from somewhere to pay for all those social programs and keep social democracy going.
1
Iamwangdong Also they need to lay off the drugs and booze and learn how to manage their finances better.
1
You won't be doing anything.
1
Only for costs to be increased 500% to cover it.
1
And be a country that cannot defend itself?
1
@magnusbruce4051 Preceded by 13 years of Labour.
1
The government is the real problem. Tax the rich = tax any attempt by the poor to improve their financial situations.
1
Not much different from voting Labour and how they destroyed the country in the 60's and 70's necessitating Thatcher's election.
1
As practiced by socialists.
1
@LoveIXTC Empathy has its limits. Those people brought it upon themselves. They lived beyond their means during their working years and are now paying the price for it. The man in the video admitted to making good money so wages were not the issue.
1
@starsandtopsoil <Most of these people's money is going solely to necessities> Only because their working income dried up. They didn't have money issues or struggled to pay for necessities when they worked. The Tories can be blamed for a lot of things, but this isn't one of them. .
1
<Or at least raise taxes on companies that don't pay a living wage to their employees.> Only to result in higher unemployment and prices to compensate.
1
Pretty much. If anything this is the social democracy and welfare state much of the West vote for.
1
And say hello to housing shortages and higher rents on whatever's available.
1
Universal credit just perpetuates and encourages poverty.
1
His property, his choice.
1
@DELETED-f3x Whatever, welfare queen!
1
This is the world free of God and religion that haters always clamored for.
1
Equatorial Guinea was under Spanish, not French rule.
1
Irresponsible tenants.
1
@user-bi8ko7kc6h But the money goes into the hands of the moms as kids are not old enough to claim it themselves.
1
@alexandrabellerose3550 Landlords are well within their rights to grant or deny whoever they want.
1
Preceded by 13 years of Labourism.
1
Just like they were the last time Scotland was an independent country.
1
Enabled and voted for by an equally corrupt populace.
1
The fruits of feminism and welfare on full display.
1
And also unsustainable welfare.
1
Unlike the US, the UK taxes any attempt to improve your financial situation.
1
@JBLegal09 <should've kept Labour> Who favors elites and foreigners.
1
LOL. Then why is everyone in a hurry to leave India?
1
Especially in the more desirable places to live in.
1
<Her gov't turned a social democratic country that supported the less well-off> But was an economic mess at the time she got elected.
1
@user-bi8ko7kc6h So? Their property, their rules.
1
Not socialism but big bureaucratic oversized government.
1
But Francisco Macias had it coming.
1
No. It's because of the government's reckless tax-and-spend policies.
1
@hodbarkleaf2714 Thanks to social networking.
1
No less than voting again for the people who raise taxes and then you wonder why you barely have any disposable income.
1
LOL.
1
@nicolajohnson1887 But the poster is still right. You didn't plan for the future opting to live for the moment.
1
LOL.
1
LOL. Corby wasn't going to do anything but take the UK back to the 60's.
1
After Labour left public housing insolvent.
1
And who exactly is going to regulate greed given that no one is above being greedy?
1
Socialism stinks even worse.
1
@TitoTimTravels Or basically messing with their money.
1
@pellier08 Exactly. And then you wonder why the UK has a consumer/household/personal debt problem.
1
But it comes at the expense of your freedom.
1
@themsmloveswar3985 Not really given how wasteful and corrupt the government is. Plus, it was the government that granted Amazon the tax break.
1
And that's a good thing, because females tend to get caught up in their feelings too much.
1
@mikeboyd-og1sh Social safety nets enable and encourage laziness.
1
@mikeboyd-og1sh Found the welfare queen.
1
@mikeboyd-og1sh More lies from the globalist atheists.
1
Not really. Latin America is a product of what Spain and Portugal started and established. Big oppressive government, nepotism, aristocracy, social caste system, etc.
1
But most social programs and support cater to women, some exclusively.
1
Thanks to the socialists in charge.
1
Abolish alimony and no-fault divorce.
1
@targetedplantsguy9481 But they're probably not eligible for it. And if they are, they have to wait XX years.
1
Eh. No.
1
Greed is nothing compared to pride.
1
They are liberals. They enable and encourage dysfunction through virtue-signaling and offer a (final) solution under the guise of compassion.
1
@moosky7344 <councils run by Labour are going broke!!> Which was why Thatcher sold them off in the first place.
1
And then a DISPOSABLE INCOME TAX. <yet the millionaires and billionaires pay less tax for no work while there bank accounts grow.> Because they were wise enough to INVEST while you spent all you have on trying to live "the good life." Yes you may have worked hard and earned the right to try and live that life, but it doesn't make it a wise thing to do especially if you care about your future.
1
Thatcher would not have been needed had the previous Labour government not turned the UK into a dump.
1
@Cathie But Singapore is an island with nowhere else to build.
1
Exactly.
1
Pretty much.
1
Is it final?
1
Yes it was. Francisco Macias Nguema = Africa's Pol Pot.
1
Free housing does not make poverty vanish. <Rent needs to be illegal, housing needs to be a right.> No it doesn't. And at who's expense this housing should be made a right?
1
Exactly.
1
LOL. The only nefarious crime government persecuting Cuba is Diaz-Canel and gang.
1
You need more government-owned slums?
1
While in socialism, you would barely have anything to spend money on and you are little more than property of the state.
1
Because their grudge with the West blinds them.
1
Why should he help out?
1
Amazon doesn't live in the UK.
1
LOL. <This is the problem that capitalism cannot ever resolve.> Or socialism as proven by Cuba.
1
Why? Because they had the foresight to save and invest while the tenants spent all their meager earnings on living it up?
1
No. He's living in poverty as a consequence of his spendthrift ways from his working years foolishly thinking the government will take care of him at retirement.
1
Not Thatcher as she was what the UK needed after Labour turned it into a dump requiring an IMF bailout.
1
Most energy companies are government-owned.
1
Entitled tenants.
1
@andy_xtr3861 Their own frivolous spending is not doing them any favors.
1
Jealous much?
1
His uncle = Africa's Pol Pot.
1
Yes it is.
1
@a.k.7341 In other words, you think women should be exempt from any consequences of their own poor decisions. SMH.
1
Because even the social safety net won't save them.
1
Beats the socialism many migrants are fleeing from.
1
@coreyc1685 <The best societies on earth, with the highest living standards ever created by humanity, redistribute massive amounts of wealth> Thanks to US military largesse providing them free protection so they barely spend much on their own defense.
1
Juts like Canada.
1
Only to end up regretting it when they decide to come for your wealth.
1
Those benefits are about control. Not upliftment.
1
@olivermbawasi3800 Or thrown in jail for disagreeing with the government, having your property and everything you worked for seized, etc.
1
BTIsaac Only as long as you're part of the ruling class.
1
BTIsaac LOL. Communism just uses and exploits the oppressed and disenfranchised as pawns for personal enrichment and empowerment.
1
@olivermbawasi3800 Exactly.
1
BTIsaac Wrong, dipshit! Capitalism never claimed to care about the poor, yet has done far more to improve the lives of the poor than your beloved communism ever have and ever will claiming to care about the poor but in a rather condescending way.
1
BTIsaac Sure, it's propaganda. But I don't see you in any hurry to trade places with the average ordinary Cuban, Venezuelan or North Korean.
1
Only as long as someone else's money is rolling in.
1
Namely in cities and states run by Democrats and Trump-haters.
1
Poverty still would be a thing as some people are just plain lousy with finances.
1
Hard-working people who can't manage their personal finances and can't handle the responsibilities of ownership so they opt to rent.
1
<apparently they don't need men> But they need men to pay for the social assistance they enjoy.
1
Also able-bodied people who made the decision not to work.
1
Well, it is with hundreds of thousands wanting out.
1
LOL. How in the world is another tax going to increase supply?
1
Actually on property taxes.
1
Brazil doesn't have a DEA.
1
The consequences of anything state-run.
1
I thought it was Mexico or Honduras.
1
@capitalismisdivisionofevil8322 The poster has a point. The man in the video's own lack of foresight to save for that rainy day helped set him up for the predicament he's currently in.
1
@sarahann530 Complacency.
1
But for how long?
1
Labour will not save you.
1
You have only high taxes, inflation and big government bureaucracy to thank for that. Welcome to the welfare state you voted for.
1
<Seems crazy so many industries can't find workers.> Not really as probably the government paid people to stay home.
1
But be a target for drug cartels.
1
<They do favour for rich! > Because the rich contribute the most to the treasury and their campaigns. Makes sense.
1
Sugar daddy government cut off the social assistance.
1
@elliemai-hi8uq They got subverted in favor of welfare.
1
<I feel for those two first men who worked years to end up destitute.> But didn't save for that inevitable day they were going to retire.
1
Cuba doesn't grow much of anything as the people are not legally allowed to farm.
1
<Liberals will help everyone out of fear that someone is not being helped.> And leave the country in debt or bankrupt in the process. Never mind that the money they use to help everyone was either borrowed or stolen from someone else.
1
The consequences of nationalization and state mismanagement.
1
Because citizens themselves are corrupt and uncaring.
1
If it wasn't for the rich, the government wouldn't have any funding for their social programs or that sizable base to tax to keep the coffers full.
1
When the left stop mismanaging the economy to the point that austerity is required.
1
White Brad Bad They all adopted capitalism while much of Africa adopted socialism post-independence. You forgot to mention China after Mao died and Deng took over.
1
@Loostyc Only for costs to be passed down to everyone else to cover it unless you don't mind shortages and a regressing economy.
1
Australia already has this and its situation is every bit as bad.
1
<None of you will ever have money as long as you work for an employer.> And can't manage what you have.
1
Exactly.
1
Because Corbyn = champagne socialist just like his US counterpart Bernie Sanders.
1
Footballers work in an industry that's profitable enough to pay them such salaries.
1
But per capita wise, the US's homelessness rate pales in comparison to the UK's.
1
Translation: tax any attempt at getting rich which protects the already rich.
1
Killing 1/3 of the population = doing no wrong?
1
China has plenty of poverty. Just don't expect state media to be honest about it.
1
Because government enabled and facilitated it.
1
No. Cuban communism caused it.
1
@simonsadler9360 And for good reason. A lot of its immigrants fled socialism and the fallout.
1
Since time immemorial.
1
But what have left-wing attitudes done expect enable and encourage people to remain in need over-burdening the rest of society?
1
66 million people = small?
1
Abolish alimony. Abolish no-fault divorce. Reinstate term limits on social assistance.
1
@elk5774 But a lot of them are. Not necessarily crackheads, but definitely wasters.
1
<You get less money and rent and other costs of living are higher.> Only if you insist on living in New York, the Bay Area, LA, etc.
1
Or even the government itself. Try and not pay property tax.
1
Government intervention enabled corporate control of the housing market.
1
@JC.72 He cared about as much for Africa as Pol Pot cared for anyone who looked the slightest bit educated.
1
Exactly. Those women are now playing the victim, because they're being forced to lie in the bed they made for themselves.
1
@TheAArmstrong The welfare state gassed them up.
1
Not completely. Poor management of personal finances is.
1
Privatization is the consequence of state mismanagement.
1
Thatcher was necessary because the previous left-wing government left the UK bankrupt.
1
@harir6316 What suffering? Your ancestors willingly traded their independence for English (financial) security.
1
@dantohatan Yet many slaves risked homeless and death to escape as apparently all the guaranteed basic needs were not worth the abuse and mistreatment they had to endure.
1
AM-uh7mv Republicans are not the ones in charge of the US.
1
If you want that convenience, it's either pay up or shut up. The landlord is not the one being greedy here. That would be you thinking you're entitled to a center city lifestyle but unable/unwilling to pay center city prices.
1
Only thanks to men.
1
No. Get some skills. An education alone is not enough.
1
The UK has more homelessness per capita than the US, though.
1
They got ran out of the home by the mothers and the government.
1
And a fucked up corrupt people.
1
Until you no longer have anything worth sharing.
1
Better than the post-Churchill Labour government that came before her.
1
Indeed!
1
@abhayagarwal5097 No you don't
1
Which is a by-product of feminism and (Cultural) Marxism.
1
@user-bi8ko7kc6h So much for housing being a right.
1
@SplashIt34 But Blacks in America are the most disproportionately dependent on welfare.
1
No. They manage what they have better than you do. That's why they're better than you. Your own complacency did you in.
1
Because you live beyond your means when you're not being overtaxed.
1
Just like Portugal and Spain.
1
As if voting Labour would have made a difference.
1
Or deserve an easy life at someone else's expense.
1
Mugabe did far more damage to Zimbabwe than the sanctions.
1
Exactly.
1
Iamwangdong And tenants are entitled cheapskates.
1
Cuba's.
1
Thatcher wouldn't have needed to sell them had the previous Labour government in charge not mismanaged them into insolvency.
1
For what?
1
And an apathetic populace.
1
Austerity was a necessity due to the Labours' overspending policies that crippled the country's finances.
1
Even the falsely accused?
1
@onebadmoto5081 And that's why justice is never left in the hands of average people.
1
Too bad a lot of them are just plain lousy with personal finances.
1
Don't live beyond your means.
1
No. Thanks to evil unforgiving Cuban communism.
1
Inflation is caused by governments, not companies. <The supply companies are ripping us off with unjustified price increases.> Just like the government is ripping them off with unjustified tax hikes and regulations on supply, production and distribution.
1
<your government will cut down social spending> Or further tax your paycheck if not make the currency it's handed to you in worthless.
1
@abhayagarwal5097 No they shouldn't. They should work and earn that good condition they think they're entitled to.
1
@marlonblade007 Not really. No one is obligated to give her housing. And they exercised their right.
1
Ditto for locals as in the case of Argentina.
1
And also when living beyond their means not saving during their working years caught up to them.

Um. No. Brazil doesn't need to go where Venezuela and Guyana went.
1
@CBT5777 Do it at your own expense. Why are you demanding others to stop having kids? The Earth is not going anywhere, so you can put down the climate change Kool-Aid.
1
Or make child support and alimony a 100% refundable tax credit for men.
1
So they can blow it on drugs or some other BS and end up right back to square one?
1
And HELLO to destitution when you become too old to take care of yourself.
1
@andym87 But now coming undone due to mass immigration and the same heavy regulations making it too costly to build new housing.
1
@NTVT1999 And rightfully so as affordable housing = revenue loss.
1
<forced to follow it. > Well, you're free to live off-grid and/or set up your own system.
1
Tenants get your financial stuff together.
1
Labour is not the answer.
1
This is the socialism you voted for. And socialism costs a lot of money to maintain.
1
Very much.
1
Why?
1
While setting the country up for bankruptcy. Austerity and privatization are not things for nothing.
1
Francisco Nguema was overthrown and executed by his own nephew. and current President.
1
Exactly. Poor people are poor for a reason and it has little to do with the rich.
1
How so? 1600/month sounds standard for living in the big city.
1
Cleaning up the mess that Wilson left the UK in.
1
But so far it's the Democrats doing it to you.
1
@G0nxsf Wrong. It's the consequence of socialism and doing business with Russia. Notice how every other country that did business with Russia end up being among the worst off?
1
And enable more Air BnB and corporate ownership.
1
Rents will inevitably increase on the housing still around.
1
Which enabled corporate landlording.
1
Socialism is still not a viable solution.
1
Having a quarter of the population slaughtered was what was good for the country?
1
And expect men to take the fall on their behalf.
1
With money stolen from families struggling to provide an easy life for themselves. <no human should struggle or think about where their next meal will come from !!!> How idealistic? Inevitably every other human will struggle and think about where their next meal is going to come from once there are no more "rich" to tax. Socialism failed for a reason.
1
But who knew the people seizing the means of production were amateurs?
1
Her was a dictator and criminal according to the families of the 33% of Equatorial Guineans he had killed.
1
That's if you enjoy fearing jail for saying something the government don't like and being spied on.
1
@CarterSimon777 Only to become even more so when the USSR cut off the aid and Castro legalized prostitution and tourism to make up for that loss during "the Special Period."
1
@AkuotDiri Hardly. It's wanting to take the easy way out in life that leads them to these unfortunate situations.
1
<Some people fall on hard times, anybody could suddenly face a health problem and become disabled, or one parent could die and the other ends up as a single parent, etc> While many just simply didn't save for that rainy day living beyond their means out of ignorance or complacency.
1
For what? Cleaning up the mess Callaghan made?
1
<Human beings evolved to live in Matriarchal Tribes:> Which are stagnant and get eaten up by the more Patriarchal ones.
1
@JosedeJezeus <Only good ideas stand the test of time.> But matriarchy isn't one of them.
1
@JosedeJezeus <contrary to popular belief, Matriarchal Tribes are NOT dead.> But irrelevant in the grand scheme of things.
1
Because they're (part) Native Indian?
1
How so? Private landlords are not a charity.
1
@Lee-bv6iv But the UK did have to run to the IMF for a bailout during that time. And many of its skilled and educated fled for Australia and Canada.
1
The government is their fathers.
1
@DeeDee-2 And now Angola is a post-communist kleptocracy that once boasted Africa's richest woman who happened to be the daughter of the current ruling party's late co-founder and head for 38 years.
1
Not really. Who told you to be a lifetime renter?
1
The government is not mommy and daddy.
1
Which were necessary after Labour mismanaged the economy.
1
So do the costs that make up the rent such as utility bills, mortgages, land values, property taxes, etc. But good luck on getting the banks and governments to agree to lowering the costs.
1
monipenny408 While socialism is the best system there is.... for bureaucrats.
1
While Labour would have bankrupted the country in the process of "helping" the poorest.

@elina4005 To support the ever-growing size of government and public sector.
1
Canada is currently floundering under liberal rule. It fared much better the last time conservatives ruled.
1
@nuckingfuts3204 Exactly.
1
Still beats the realities of socialism where everyone except the politically well-connected struggle.
1
<They even dont care about their neighbours. Most of the businessman are selfish.> They don't owe their neighbors a thing. So are most ordinary people.

@RealOGfikey Why can't you pay for your own ticket?

They still work. There's a reason why millions risk death to live in the British world fleeing their overcrowded, repressive, collectivist hellholes.
1
Only to prove themselves even worse than the Tzar as Lenin and Stalin starved more people in a generation than the Tzar during their entire reign.

And there's only so much supply to go around.

@johnmitchell2269 Still dealing with the fallout of communism as it's run by descendants and beneficiaries of the old communist regime.
1
@hansiesma16 <China’s one child policy, and means tested, might help us with the devastating dilemma of multiple millions of innocent children living in poverty.> China abolished the one-child policy in 2017 as it did nothing but screw up the demographics.
1
But men are far more likely to end up homeless and commit suicide.
1
Socialist-leaning countries use and abuse the poor for clout.
1
Rent control does not work unless you don't mind shortages, no new housing built, 0% vacancy rates, higher rents for whatever's available and housing either sold off to corporations or left to crumble.
1
Because under communism, people would be living in squalor and have barely anything at all to buy.
1
So do Labour.
1
The homeless in Russia are left to starve and die in the countryside.
1
No. This is only a problem in countries with welfare.
1
Like in Venezuela?
1
What capitalists? Socialists destroyed it. Socialism and feminism go hand in hand.
1
Because in other parts of the world, people don't have time to let some invisible illness prevent them from supporting themselves and loved ones. If anything, welfare made a lot of first-worlders soft.
1
Ireland: hold my shamrock.
1
Exactly.
1
No.
1
Socialism has already been tried and proven itself to be unviable.
1
You allowed them to when you decided to cede welfare and family care to the state.
1
@Deadassbruhfrfr plus, South America is politically and economically unstable.
1
@@captainawesome12345 On top of the privileges they already enjoy from the very same patriarchy they want dismantled.
1
@SirHargreeves Society's biggest mistake was embracing feminism and subsequently ceding family care to the government.
1
@DELETED-f3x Just like who cares about tenants that live beyond their means then have to cry about being broke and hungry?
1
@YouYou-sm8tf China no longer has the 1-child policy.
1
No we can't. Because ultimately, it's not sustainable. <and this is why I'm a socialist.> So were plenty of countries that adopted socialism and ran into problems supporting themselves especially when they ran out of outside aid to cover up for the inefficiency and inadequacy of their models.
1
Not everyone is innocent. Some people are living beyond their means and/or can't manage their personal finances.
1
@candyann-qb2xi Because in 1934, there was no welfare to encourage single motherhood.
1
LOL. Canada and the US currently have left-wing governments and they're enjoying every moment.
1
@huiflora2188 Also higher property taxes.
1
<Such a shame that people who have been working hard their whole life have to live like this if they are unable to work.> They're just paying the price for not saving during their working years.
1
LOL. Lay off the PCC propaganda.
1
No it isn't. Build your own or buy it.
1
What about reforming the culture and society?
1
Pretty much.
1
While starving and massacring their own people in the process.
1
Stop being envious.
1
Left-wing/socialist policies = inflation, internal displacement by mass immigration, high living costs, debt, bloated government and public sector, etc.
1
Because most people who vote are dumb.
1
And watch housing supply further shrink as no one wants to build new housing or want anything to do with the rental market. And new renters can forget about getting an apartment.
1
Marx was an upper-class moocher.
1
Tenants were slaughtered as well under Mao.
1
The UK was not poor under Thatcher. Plus Thatcher was necessary after the previous Labour government left the country bankrupt and a dump..
1
Capitalism works. The problem with the UK is too much socialism in its system.
1
@dondoodat Yet America has a far more extensive social safety net and per capita among developed countries, its homeless is not in the top 10 while the UK's is.
1
Nope. The housing crisis is due to government intervention. Mass immigration-induced high demand, high taxes and regulations that make it costly to build and maintain housing and lopsided laws in favor of tenants.
1
Never have, never will.
1
<This is what conservative government gives you.> Canada, the US, New Zealand and Australia beg to differ as they all have liberal/left-wing governments in charge.
1
<This is what this world wants, wants us all to beg, scrimp and scrap, > And what you set yourself up for when you choose to live frivolously not learning how to plan ahead or save. <And bet those who are in power, wouldn't last a day on nothing at all, never mind working in blood and sweat, as they don't know the true meaning of hard work,> But they know the meaning of long-term planning. The poor do play a prominent role in their own poverty.
1
If anything, what you're seeing here is social democracy coming undone.
1
Tracchofyre But rarely have their stuff together.
1
Because they invest while the poor live beyond their means.
1
<We live in a f*cked up world, where the poor gets poorer and the rich even richer!!> Because the rich save and invest while the poor spend all they have.
1
@scottyc7220 It actually does if you reap the benefits from the crimes they committed.
1
Simple. Such a society wouldn't last as people's needs vary and there are only so many resources to go around. And you already did socialism only to prove yourself inadequate and inefficient at it.
1
While on the other side of the pond, it's the liberal left killing us.
1
Tenants are every bit as greedy. Part of the reason why they're renters is because they're frivolous with money.
1
@joelc9439 But the UK has more per capita homelessness than the US.
1
@BoycottGoogleTotally Doesn't matter. The poor will always be around regardless.
1
They already did had that between the mid 1960's through the mid 1980's.
1
@Hvantmiki Due to flexible hours and more personal time.
1
@pippah447 <The pay gap does exist,> Because women don't work as much and therefore don't earn as much.
1
How so? They can't keep rents frozen forever in the face of rising property taxes, insurance costs, repair and maintenance costs, etc.
1
<e liberation of their people.> By being even bigger oppressors than the West was toward their people.
1
@neljay9149 LOL.
1
Social housing = crime and poverty-ridden ghettoes.
1
Exactly.
1
<facing old age disabled with nothing much to look forward to.> Partly because you didn't save during your working years.
1
No. Try extreme socialism with its high taxes, deficit-spending and over-regulation.
1
@blackporscheroadster-yw8hb Exactly.
1
@LibtardTears Or live within your means.
1
LOL. It was Scotland that consented to forfeiting its independence in exchange for its debts paid off by England. England was always independent. Scotland failed at it.
1
Neither do communism.
1
Welfare made people lazy, prideful and entitled.
1
The beneficiaries, descendants and ex-members of communism rule Eastern Europe.
1
LOL. Nowhere near the disgrace the policies of the previous ruling Labour were that left the country bankrupt with tens of thousands of Brits fleeing for Canada and Australia.
1
Exactly.
1
@erenyeager6668 LOL. The left taxes everyone except the rich billionaires hence the high cost of living, inflation and debt.
1
@MarcelaElviraTimis The same wage gap that have been debunked time after time by the fact that men on average work more than women and occupy jobs that carry way more risk and responsibility hence the higher pay and the general lack of women interested in taking those jobs?
1
No. The love of money is.
1
<Your very job where you sell your labor all to fill the pockets of a smug capitalist who thinks they are better and working harder than the actual workers, is a political issue.> You're free to start your own business or work for a less exploitative company.
1
@ChairmanMeowOk Yes you are. You just don't want the responsibilities associated with ownership and much rather sell your labor to said smug capitalist as it's easy to just punch a clock, take orders and collect a paycheck.
1
Namely in places run by Democrats.
1
Since when did supermarkets control national economic policy?
1
So much for housing being a right.
1
@playthegame7445 Pretty much.
1
Should have gotten themselves an SO. That's just a small price to pay for wanting to be strong and independent.
1
@zorzobukumica628 Ditto for Corbyn.
1
@TheSlinq No. It's the landlord's home and property. The tenant is nothing more than a guest.
1
And send the country to the dumps like they did post-Churchill pre-Thatcher.
1
The vast majority who are not making minimum wage?
1
@markusk1015 But when you live in a country with no real social safety net and a restricted economy, having 5 kids is a matter of future survival.
1
@andm-3686 Most of the land is government-owned and protected.
1
Because that's where all the services and social support reside.
1
Because no one wants to be labeled a racist xenophobe.
1
@liquidsnake6879 I wouldn't be surprised.
1
Well, average citizens got what they voted for.
1
The government is the father.
1
There's nothing capitalist about zoning restrictions.
1
Oh yes they are. They voted for those POS's that eventually took them for granted.
1
@leahkeyworth That low housing stock due to government over-regulation.
1
And a lot of the working class are lousy with money. No wonder why they a household/consumer debt problem.
1
But it was Kwame Nkrumah of Ghana that set a negative precedent for post-independence African leaders. Liberators turned oppressors.
1
Actually including European ones. Especially Eastern and Central European ones.
1
@capitalismisdivisionofevil8322 Fascism is a brand of socialism.
1
<Rich feminists who have generational wealth> Thanks to their fathers and husbands.
1
<There are places where there are NO supports for people, and I mean literally no supports> Those places barely have a middle class at all and have restricted economies which only the well-connected are allowed to make money.
1
But not saving for your future does. It is foolish and arrogant to expect the government to take care of you without any backup on your own part.
1
Which lies with the city government and their zoning restrictions, bureaucracy, NIMBY voter base, ect.
1
To cover the higher taxes, inflation and other costs imposed on them.
1
No it's not.
1
@ZS.Bonsai Which will be worth it in the end.
1
@joe5923 Yes they can. It's just that they limit their colonizing to their neighbors.
1
No. Common people failed to provide themselves dignity. And dignity is not going to be found in socialism either waiting on the state to provide for you as if you're too helpless and pathetic to support yourself.
1
How can they lower prices in the face of increasing costs to do business?
1
Meh. Bernie Sanders is a millionaire and changed his tune on taxing the rich once he became rich.
1
And it still wouldn't make a difference as the government = billionaires.
1
In response to Labour and their economic mismanagement.
1
But the UK has more per capita homelessness than the US.
1
<Try getting housing as a single male.> Especially social housing.
1
Inequality is a natural consequence of freedom. Some will always have more than others.
1
@eetwtszdfsregreshteshu Men get paid more because they work more and are willing to risk and take on more.
1
Exactly.
1
Left-wing economic policy at work.
1
What have Labour done?
1
It's well-earned.
1
Men and women seldom work the same jobs. And when they do, women earn less because they often work less. It's hard to earn the same when you take maternity leave, miss work for personal reasons, decide to conscientiously take a low-level position in the name of flexible hours, etc.
1
And replace them with who? Labour who will take the UK back to the 60's and 70's?
1
No. Women more often than not choose to work less. They love the "flexible hours."
1
@sandrafinbar No they don't.
1
Record profits or really just record revenues?
1
Exactly. And if anything, the circumstances beyond their control = final nail in the coffin.
1
Apparently.
1
And. Then. Eat. Each. Other.
1
The welfare state really spoiled a lot of people.
1
@Sco16161 But that's a get-rich-quick scheme and most of the women on OF won't be around in 5 years once their looks fade and their male clientele move on from them.
1
<Stop fucking believing tory/blairite lies and elect a socialist for fucks sake> Who'll take the UK back to the 60's and 70's. A bankrupt dump.
1
Because socialism was allowed to co-opt and pervert it.
1
LOL <Give every breathing human the right to a free plot of land and a home and see us progress to higher levels of consciousness,> Haiti did exactly that after it got its independence only to have to reinstate slavery when food production levels collapsed and many people starved because the land went to waste. Everyone received a free plot of land, but few people knew how to farm let alone enough food to sustain a nation.
1
Don't you just love feminism?
1
Due to high taxes, over-regulation, too many people in need and not enough people working or producing.
1
@rogermoore-gd9do In addition to living beyond their means.
1
Then you better not complain when an immigrant comes in and will happily takes those jobs as he/she sees them as preferable to whatever they had in their home countries. <people shouldn't be forced to do them.> But the rest of society shouldn't be forced to support those who choose not to work because they rather starve than work a job that's beneath them.
1
Exactly.
1
<I thought life was suppose to be about experiences and memories and being carefree but how can we when they all cost so much money> That's for children and teenagers. The only adults living a carefree life are either homeless or trust-fund babies.
1
@wunmiish That's because they were too backwards to do it even if they wanted to. They were too busy surviving on subsistence farming and killing and enslaving each other.
1
Social democracy running out of other people's money.

<Fathers are not second class parents.> Not according to family court.

@derickjude7188 If she had values, she wouldn't have ended up being a single mom in the first place.

@HollyB-b3t Developers and builders are the reason any housing is built at all. Government doesn't build anything themselves. They off the jobs to private firms and contractors.
