AOC is about as dumb as it gets, but don’t write off her Squad Sister Ilhan Omar’s ability to give her a run for her money.
We don’t purport to know all the answers to the COVID19 problem. It’s extremely complex.
But we’re pretty sure that Ilhan Omar’s solution sucks:
*taps mic*
Cancel rent

Great idea! Then the building owners and landlords won’t be able to collect money to maintain their buildings and the tenants will be out on the street anyway. Everybody wins!

I'm sure this sounds great to people who depend on rent to make their living/retirement/etc. I love how leftist compassion almost always involves screwing some people to help others.

Wouldn't that bankrupt the landlords? Who's protecting the owners or are they just evil because they own things and charge for its use?

And families that rely upon supplemental rental income are just screwed.

Ok….as long as the landlord can cut off electric, gas, waste removal and all expenses to house people

That's the best way to make rentals receive zero maintenance. This policy leads to blight.

Roughly 30% of my current retirement income is rent from a condo I purchased in 1986. Any ideas as to how I’m supposed to replace that income if my tenant doesn’t pay rent? I’m not really rich, I get ssi and a small pension

*taps mic* and when we cancel rent, how will landlords pay mortgage payments, utility companies, maintenance workers, office staff, and feed their families??????????

People who own things are the enemy. Try and keep up.
Cancel Ilhan Omar

Now that we could get behind.
