  1. The Supreme Court ruled employers can set a dress code.

  3. India must be laughing their azzes off over how they unloaded Kshama Sawanton on the U.S.

  4. Maybe the current mayor of San Francisco is helping to drive people out.

  5. Why work in a factory for $17.50 hour when you can make $1,000's tax free every week. It teaches crime does pay and pay very well. For many, the straight and narrow just doesn't sell.

  6. Offer shoplifters free bus services to the middle class Democrat neighborhoods that support lax law enforcement.

  7. This will slow down once the white executives get fired and replaced by non-whites.

  8. If you have 40 million new homeless landlords better get prepared for more regulations. This is an ideal situation for the Alexandria Ocasio-Cortezs in government.

  9. The WuKluxKlan!

  10. I get groceries from Aldi and many of their off brand/house brand products are pretty good.

  11. Instead of a recall, how about a fund to pay for Sawant's one way first class airline ticket back to India?
    13
  12. A lot of jobs never paid great money or had great benefits. Many people had their employer's retirement plans ended and the lucky ones may have gotten a small check for the money paid in. For them, they never had a chance to sock away a lot of cash for a rainy day. One little thing goes wrong and they're stuck.

  13. Forget recall, go for deportation.
    11
  14. I support lower cost housing but my concern has been are people going to be thankful and appreciative for the housing or abuse it and be undesirable.

  15. Productive is not in the vocabulary of the Left.

  16. I stopped using the post office for bill payments. Several never made it and I hate overdue payment notices.

  17.  @djm5687  Legally speaking... you are correct. That is how Al Capone was nailed.

  18. We listen about your idiots to get our mind off of our idiots.

  19. Set up camps for detoxing. On the 3rd arrest you get sent to one. You detox, show some productive drive, you get to leave and rejoin society. Otherwise you get to stay and I would suspect many will want to stay. Better such people instead of wandering and causing endless upset stay in the camps.

  20. Parking should become easier.

  21. People on Social Security haven't seen benefits keep up with inflation. The last reform (fix) in 2008 made sure of it.

  22. Someone in Bellevue has a serious case of trash can envy.

  23. Seattle acts like a loony bin so your city doesn't have to.

  24. Sean, once you favor one group, you will exclude others. You are working at cross purposes.

  25. On the west coast when they call you a partner, it seems to mean you both go on a date but you always get to pick up the tab.

  26. The jail there is already booked solid.
    5
  27. The Left wingers love those nice warm, fuzzy terms.

  28. Seattle's motto should be: "Don't stop the groove". This plan sounds like it will be a way for the oppressed to demand more city aid and services.

  29. Mexico already has the benefit of getting billions from California with none of the hassles of running California. Mexico is in the sweet spot.

  30. Didn't late night talk show hosts go to Venice Beach to ask questions about current events to people who seemed to not even know what country they lived in? Venice Beach always seemed to be the epicenter of dumb in America.

  31. I do not think the local Post Office has picked up their phone for ages. They publish the number but despite many attempts over the years, they have never answered it when I called.

  32. This video was an excellent example of putting lipstick on a pig.

  33. When you deal with drug addicts you are dealing with endless headaches. If legal I would send those off to a camp and not let them out until they clean themselves up. Thanks to the Supreme Court, that is much harder to do. My concern is for people that are slowly being driven into poverty by high rents and lack of viable lower cost alternatives. I am in a city that is not exactly an economic hotbed any longer and the rents just amaze me. High paying jobs are not abundant yet we see rents that were charged in midtown Manhattan just a few years ago. Where my sister lives is worse. She lives in a well kept and nice economic has been of a place but closer to NYC so you get commuters. The rents are higher yet.

  34.  @Rebecky31  Something that never gets discussed.

  35. As long as the Wall Street stock exchanges exist in New York City, the city will have a cash cow. NYC also has a lot of corporate headquarters and the high paying jobs they have. If either leave, NYC becomes America's largest 3rd world colony because there is little else to support their economy.

  36. I think that could get you into boiling hot water in some states. Not a good idea.

  37. I do not think home owners insurance covers anything used for business.

  38. If it is a choice between throwing people on the streets or saving a landlord, politicians will go with the people. The federal government has to get back into the low cost housing business. The market will not/can not supply low cost housing.

  39. That is a very tough call.

  40. Sometimes you have to think this guy makes these stories up.

  41. Some say extortion, I like the term shake down operation better.

  42. Chain snatchers were thieves that would walk up to a woman and rip off her necklace.

  43. Amazon sold Trump's book The Art Of The Deal. Should Amazon Web Services end up banning Amazon itself?

  44. Did you know Johnson has a black wife? And he has black kids?

  45. Not every immigration story has a happy ending.

  46. I started expecting this years ago when I had seen an increase in these real estate investing promoters. Housing could be considered something beyond investing, it is basic to living, like food. It was only a matter of time some of what you are seeing happen now would occur. There isn't a politician in the country that would support landlords over thousands and thousands becoming homeless. I suspect in blue states and Democrat party controlled cities, you will see more and more landlords getting the back seat in any housing crisis. Once started this type of thinking could only expand and become more common and more expansive. If I were a landlord I would be thinking about getting out of rentals while the getting is good.
    2
  47. I would expect this way of thinking to spread across the U.S.

  48. Probably one of the illegals accidently brushed against a White female Progressive and that left her feeling assaulted.
    2
  49. Kshama Sawant must be smiling. This news is very good news for her.
    2
  50. Our city solved the shop lifting problem sometime ago. Any store worth shop lifting in went out of business or left years ago.
    2
  51. Then demand for rent control starts.
    2
  52. You can talk free market but once rents become unaffordable the market will have a response, more government regulation.
    2
  53. Throwing people on the street is a political loser. I would expect in the future landlords are going to be taking the hit on economic downturns or other crisis's. Once done it becomes easier to do it the next time.

  54. How many landlords vote vs how many renters vote?

  55. The mansplaining in this video is just appalling.

  56. How about Idiots?

  57. This allows the government to seize "your" land at will.

  58. The Price story was funny.

  59. If it is a choice between homeless or property rights, I think property rights will get pushed off to the side. You can't have millions of homeless, rootless people and expect social stability.

  60. The state can say no landlord was forced to take the deal.

  63.  @justanoman6497  I am pretty confident a lawyer can easily paint you as a bill collector or at least acting like one since you are trying to collect on a debt.

  64. Housing is a key necessity and profit making will come second. I always thought someday a lot of landlords will be finding this out.
    1
  65. As rents rise there will have to be government action. I do not think it will be a great time for landlords. Politicians of both parties will have their hand forced because people sleeping in the streets won't work for long.

  66. The CPI is rigged so COLA doesn't show true inflation. After they "fixed" COLA several years ago, the increases do not keep up with the cost of living.

  67.  @uptoyouThailand  Throwing people into the street is a good way to create social disorder.

  68. Sawant is an immigration fail.

  69. Just like Sean to deny people a chance to get a good deal on a big screen tv. This is why Trump lost.

  70. The government should go back to building low cost housing. The private market won't be building any, the government has to.

  71.  @jehovahnissi1961  Good thing it happened otherwise where would Mexicans flee to?

  72. Not too many cheaper places to move to. As for Florida, I have been hearing about walloping big increases in insurance rates.

  78. I thought about it one time but figured if it is a choice between throwing people out in the street and sticking a landlord, I figured the landlord would lose. With the ever escalating cost of renting, the situation would get worse over time. At least you would start seeing more rent control extended over more areas.
    1
  79. I am not surprised by this and I expect even more creativity in the future. Housing wasn't taken seriously for years and the market clearly shows it can not provide affordable rentals/housing. As rents go up expect expect even more aggressive proposals. This issue should have been taken more seriously years ago. The ideas may not make sense but it gives desperate people a feeling something is being done. And with the flood of illegals Biden allows in, housing will become even more critical. Forget market solutions, we are way past that now.

  80. What is going on in the Mideast with Gaza isn't just a religious war, it is also a race war.

  81. Send these people to the nice white Democrat suburbs. They voted for Biden, they should be forced to share in the urine and poop fun.

  82.  @christopherconard2831 Business coverage is available at additional cost but many home operations are probably not aware of it. If customers enter and they break a leg, you'll have a problem. If your equipment has coverage that should cover away from office theft, if not no doubt available at optional additional cost :)

  83. Omar and Talaib are professional parasites. On the other hand, Bezos could have have gotten ahead of some of these image problems before the press made him their favorite whipping boy.

  85. India's gain was America's loss.

  86. Not everyone is making more money. A lot of people at best have stalled earnings Rents are what triggered off protests in New York City about minimum wages (as in other localities). Affordable housing for low income must be made available or you will start seeing this boil over. For people like Sean, rentals are an investment and for renters, it's a home. No politician will support people like Sean if things start exploding.

  89. We got no profits. Better to say the store is losing more money then we can bear. Profits is a very dirty word to a lot of people and they'll just see greedy corporates. I always give the Left credit for one thing: They know how to use words effectively. Going on about I ain't got no profits isn't a sympathetic argument. William Vanderbilt, author of the infamous quote "The public be damned" at least explained his situation and feelings by stating that the public continually requests certain services, the New York Central Railroad then invests large amounts of money in those services then the public doesn't use them. This results in a large waste on money. Unfortunately, he ended his explanation with a great sound bite for his enemies. I can guarantee ranting on about profits wins little support for your argument.

  90. New York City hasn't handled huge numbers of immigrants for decades. Most of the low skilled, manual labor jobs are gone. NYC no longer builds the housing that absorbed large numbers of incomers.

  91. I haven't seen rents drop in years.

  92. The private market can no longer provide economical rentals. At some point the government will have to go back into the business. The biggest concern would be if you get renters that respect the property. Making the minimum of $15/hr one can barely pay the rent on a one of two bedroom apartment. This will increase the demand for rent control. Federal housing could sit side by side with private rentals as the private market can provide alternatives to a basic rental housing unit the government would offer. The other option is raising the minimum wage higher and higher creating a inflationary cycle.

  93.  @angieharris8015  Indeed it will but for people who see reduced rent increases, lower supply of rentals isn't their problem.

  94.  @phlodel  That is why I said put them into camps (away from the city). Start drug treatment. They can't leave until they clean themselves up. Maybe do it some country like setting. I remember years ago reading in the early 1840's a society gathered up troubled Irish immigrant kids in New York City and they sent them into the countryside. The program seemed fairly successful and many of these kids returned better behaved. With drug addicts this might help though it's a safe bet some will never be reformed. Due to cost this would have to be a combined city/state/federal program.

  95.  @williamadams5384  In time the talent will move to Texas because that is where the jobs are. San Francisco is too Left which was often reflected in the censorship Twitter use to exercise. They let their personal views get in the way too many times.

  96. Many people can not get jobs that allow them to set aside big fats savings for emergencies. Not everyone is smart enough to get those nice 6-7 figure salaries with stock options. I know some of these people. They ain't living high, they aren't throwing their money away because they have little money and much of that money goes to rent. It is a little hard to swallow watching rent rise on an older home paid for 3 times over mainly because of a real estate investor trying to line their pockets.

  97. I was watching a program about the rehabilitation industry in California. You could make some pretty nice money. How would a no work no drugs policy work out?
