It was because of the headline, I came in here ready to throw down.  I’m glad that the article is positive, but man, that headline is just gross.

Speaking as a landlord, I do not understand others who are anti-taking those on assistance. It literally makes no sense beyond just being prejudicial trash. You’re telling me my rent payment is pretty much guaranteed? AND there’s an agency I can go to if you start causing problems on the property that will help…

Does Nevada have an equivalent to Jumaane Williams’ NYC worst landlords list? If so, Rothstein’s nailed #1 for the next 10 years, even if he the only property he owns during that time is his orange jumpsuit.

I’d like to know what notary public signed off on this document. I’m a notary, and I would lose my license, pay a hefty fine AND get locked up in jail for attempting to legalize this.

Nah, his licenses are PISSED. 

Housing vouchers typically subsidize rent to ensure that your rental portion is no more than 30% of your income. The house was probably considerably more than $145, but $145 was the portion she was charged, with the voucher paying the remainder. That $145 adjusts if her personal income goes up or down.

You don’t speak for me.

What is wrong with socialism?? The happiest people on the planet are from socialist countries, Denmark , Sweden.

Huh.  So he wasn’t able to take all that money with him?  Strange...

If you can’t say anything nice...

You are now due to the speaking podium, LIV golfers 

The sooner we wean ourselves of all Saudi and Russian oil, the better.

Lol, you definitively, without any doubt, know with 100% certainty that this one person, of all the billions of people in the world, was the single best actress for the job?  Even the people who cast her cannot say that.  Also, if this show did not include elements about Tripp’s experience as a fat person, which was…

I hope somewhere amidst all the praise for the courage of this rich white woman (who will probably make a mint off a book deal and speaking engagements), the political media recognizes that this result shows more than ever that the primary stance of the Republican Party is that only Republicans are allowed to win…

No and gross. Capitalism is very much at the root of the problem in social and material conditions. Life is not getting better for the “average person,” inequality and precarity are rampant, the social behaviors influenced by neoliberalism create a second tier of ideological enforcement that causes estrangement and…
