Rent Strike Movement Gaining Steam

Hang the bankers. Let the government start to empty its pockets from all of our tax money funneled to military industrial complex and thier own coffers and politicians pockets. Maybe if they didn't send our tax money to other countries we would have a surplus.redistribute that 1% of money back down to everyone who deserves it.bankers are the problem, use the military and seize all thier wealth.

Really? You hate me because I am a Christian, you're a self admitted Satanist, a big devil you yourself said so.

This rental house we built from our money, to take in the MIL who lived out her days with us, dying at 92. I cooked her meals, took her everywhere she needed to go, pretty much giving up my own life and time for her.

Last winter I rented the place to an elderly woman who had nowhere to go, at one third the going price. She repaid me by moving and leaving a garage full of junk behind.

It has cost me thousands of dollars in upkeep just this year alone, deck repair (which the tenant tore up) house cleaning, carpet cleaning, hauling trash away, well testing. tree trimming, roof and gutter cleaning and repair, garbage pick up, on and on it goes..so it's not like I'm getting rich off of it.

Lance from BC is right Pete. Your brand of "American Individualism", which is actually dehumanizing atomization, is the main contributor to the destruction of America. It all started with the "move out" craze of the 50's (another false golden age whose memory was created by chambers of commerce), where nearly all Americans were enslaved to banks, just like the student loan craze of today, which is a repeat of the move out craze. Multi-generational homes allow families to learn from one another and build intergenerational wealth, which makes a country strong and resilient.

Also, if you hate the government, as it seems you do, you should applaud those people who "TAKE ALL THE MERNEY", because it reduces the amount of operating capital the government has to spend on other things. And if they take all the jobs, like you say they do, it means that more people are unemployed, which means the pool of operating capital is further sucked dry, leaving even less money for those government programs which you most surely dislike.

Further, if you're this big he-man individualist, why don't you buy up a couple of those stores and run them? Have you ever considered that these immigrants are simply running their businesses better and you're tilting at windmills with a 45 calibre fashion accessory?

Furthermore, "westerner" isn't a title with any factual historical individualism attached to it. The American west, since the exploratory efforts of Lewis and Clark, has always relied upon the markets and factories of the east not only for machines, firearms, parts, fabrics, and a whole bevy of other products, but also as a viable market for their own produce and products. There is no true historical individualism attached to the west; like every conquered territory there are always roads back to Rome and goods travel to and fro upon them.

Knobs are trying it on here. They are very short sighted.

No no no no

I will tell you how it is. After 2008 I was made redundant.
No one was hiring, I had to go seek help at the government.

They told me. sorry no help for you, you have to spend your life savings. This was the money I got from selling my home, because I could not afford its upkeep and rented.

So now Im spending all my lifes money on rent and bills WITH NO HELP AT ALL. (these people dont give a monkeys uncle about you)

So there Im sending 5000 resumes a day out for a job. It continues for years. No work sorry

Then they start changing their tune. WHY YOU OUT OF WORK SO LONG. (Same ass holes)

So I make my own way with what I have left of my life savings. No help from the government, no help from anyone. NO CHOICE

Now those same assholes who did not want to give me a job are the same assholes crying for bailouts and want free RENT.


FUCK NO!! NO NO NO YOU SPEND YOUR LIFE SAVING LIKE YOU FORCED ON OTHER TILL ITS ALL GONE, EAT OUT THE TRASH CAN. LEAVE THEM FOR DEAD. THATS WHAT YOU DID EVERY TIME YOU REJECTED A RESUME!

SELL YOUR TV, YOUR FURNITUE, YOUR CLOTHES.

FUCK YOU!

LIVE IN YOUR CAR.

These assholes must never be allowed a bailout of anykind. Do you know how many people they left out there to die, sleeping on the curb.

NO NO NO NO REALLITY BYTES YOU CREATED... NOW LIVE IT!

Poland tells it like it is!

Death to anyone who tries to escape their DUE KARMA.

You will eat your pie Sir! a be happy with the world you created.

Seems like the renters have the upper hand. If 3 out of 10 people will not have a job, evicting people will open the unit up for other potential tenants but the portion of the population willing and able to rent has been downsized. Everyone’s thinking about April, what about May, June....?
Great Depression II.

Stood outside in the rain in the line in front of UI for an hour to be told that the governor had not yet signed something to implement the cares act unemployment so I would not be able to apply. In Arkansas. Both our repub senators, Cotton and Boozeman tried to hold up the vote throwing a fit about the unemployment. They didnt want the peasants to have it. So this will be their way to hold it up and make sure no one gets it.

Once the bank takes the property back from him, they will bulldoze it with you in it, if you are still there.

Landlords have to listen to the government. The banks ARE the government. They know what's coming and the rent ban is a way of the banks getting all of the property back from privet owners. Your playing right into their hands

Holy cow...

Well thanks to whoever pinned this thread...

I have NEVER gotten so much red karma (on GLP) in my life!


It's all good.

I'm looking forward to being homeless soon. I really am!



PS-- Lance from BC had a fascinating insight: (Candians) tend to put extra cash into paying their rent ahead of time, rather than into banks.

Cheers, sir, for that tidbit.

May your Beer Runs always be successful, my friend!

There will be so many houses of dead old people the next few months, just go find one after the death notice and squat it. Courts aren't open to deal with this mess. Fuck it, they're dead. They don't need it anymore.

That would be sad :(

Hope you have a gun, after the family find you squatting there allot of unemployed people with guns will offer


CLEANING SERVICES to landlords.

Who Agreed to pay YOUR DEBTS in the first place ? YOU DID, and it wasn’t an agreement that if anything bad happened, you don’t have to pay what YOU AGREED TO PAY IN THE FIRST PLACE !!!

Just like credit cards
Just like school loans
Just like a car payment
Etc.

You are responsible for paying your debts, weather it’s a difficult time or not! And I as well as the landlord are in the same boat, the only difference is the landlord used the money he earned to buy property and rent it to someone for money.....now it’s my responsibility to figure out how to do what I’ve already agreed to do !!!

The Fact that you agreed to pay when things were easy.....doesn’t mean that responsibility goes away when things are tough...for whatever reason

Humankind has saddled themselves with debt, nobody did it to them,
Myself included.....but I take personal responsibility

I'm not sure why all the hysteria...if the rent is due and
people can't pay because the government that "governs" is
allowing this 'suggestion' to happen, they will step in
and make the mortgages NOT DUE for three months.

I think that's what's going to happen and the expended
energy to criticise and scorn this will be moot because
none of you is in this position.

Unless you walk in a man's shoes, you can't know what this
would be like and all of you criticising this obviously
still have your jobs.

It's easy to criticise when it's NOT HAPPENING TO YOU!

I don't care about your 'holier than thou' past that you
came from, you were homeless, you were this, you were that,
IT'S NONE OF OUR DAMN BUSINESS!

If they, banks, government, whoever want to help people,
it makes no nevermind to me. Help them.

What skin is it off anyone's nose who HAS A JOB???

At least I do not care anymore.

This is the most f*cked up sh*t I've seen people go through.

I hope help comes in the form needed because---

This is The United States of America...

and that's what we do...help when asked.

Money means nothing. Human lives mean everything. And if this
means kids having homes to sleep in and people get another
chance at life---thank God for that.

If it gets bad, there aren't any rules anymore. Gotta do what you gotta do if your landlord is gonna be an asshole. Who would really fault a person for using an unoccupied residence belonging to nobody during a time of worldwide pandemic crisis...

Can't wait to deflate you slumlord's big heads. All of you are butthurt and you know what's coming. Things are going to get worse for you leeches. You think the cops are going to give two shits about your crying about a tennant not paying rent in a depression. Cops don't even want to pull people over at this point. Arrogant retard. Can't wait....

Spotted some #RentStrike #StreetArt...XOXO
