If you think Silicon Valley is running on $2-3 mil you’ve already outed yourself as unwise.

No. Quit blaming others for what you don’t have and focus your efforts on working toward your goals. Be respectable.

I completely agree thinking black people are scary is racist. I just mean I don’t believe it is some type of calculated methodology of the police as a whole. It’s racist, poorly-trained, inadequate officers acting individually within a system that gives them weapons, authority, power, and no consequence. We need to…

My brother lives in San Francisco and pays $4k+ per month in rent. He isn’t a “born wealthy” playing with anyone’s money or making up imaginary companies. He is smart, earned a scholarship to one of the country’s top schools despite being middle-class and white, and has been working his ass off for years. If you can’t…

Maximizing your property for the best returns isn’t “exploiting people for wealth,” it’s “what things cost.” You have to pay the going rate to live somewhere. The going rate isn’t determined solely by the evil greedy property owner; it’s determined by many factors that influence the market value. People don’t have the…

I don’t agree that police are engaging in systematic murder, degradation, and oppression of a race of people. I don’t believe that the police who murdered innocent black men this week were on a mission to murder and oppress black people. I think they’re inadequate police officers with a belief that black people are…

Thanks for the correction. I had seen that the suspect was black. Still maintain this isn’t about “sides;” the only sides here are murder versus not murder.

I don’t have to be a landlord to understand that they ought to be allowed to earn a living with their properties as best they can. Although since my fiance has moved into my house and is paying rent, sure, you can call me a landlord.

Point the finger at the editors and publishers who run this crap. Idiot writers are everywhere; the real question is why are these magazines giving them a platform?

Amen. Seriously it’s like people have no ability for rational thought.

This is what kills me. Today my Facebook wall is flooded with posts about the Dallas shootings. The last few days I only saw a small number of posts about this week’s killing of innocent black men by police. It’s so telling, and so exhausting.

Assholes = people trying to make a living in their chosen profession?

Who are you mad at? The hardworking people that can pay their rent? The hardworking property owners who are earning a living?

Maybe the property owners should be forced to go ahead with the new building and more units, which will then be rented to the current tenants and other low-income people at a rate of $1/month. That would be “fair,” right?

Then don’t move to the Bay Area. Pretty easy.

Inflation happens. Neighborhood appreciation happens. Property values exist. America was never meant to be, nor should it be, a place where people get to live for whatever rate they would like to pay. I am sure it is an inconvenience for these people to move, but this property owner does not owe them housing and care…

Reach out to them anyway. There could be thousands of the same mindset as you in your district and none of you are speaking up because you all think it doesn’t matter.

Yes, advising people to stop activism is a dumb comment. Which you made, not me.

These aren’t two sides to one thing. On one hand, innocent black men were murdered by specific police officers, On the other hand, innocent police officers - who were not the ones who committed the murders - were killed by black people who were not the victims. These are two idiotic wrongs. If anything they are on the…

Killing presumably innocent police officers because other police officers committed a horrific crime is not vengeance. It is EXACTLY THE SAME as a police officer thinking all black people are dangerous and scary because some black people commit violence.
