Did you vote today? If so, for who? What were up for referendum?

I voted to reelect Cory Booker for Senate. Also to maintain rent control and to make the local school board electable.

This is an important election. You must vote

have fun with the shittiest maintained apartment.

A government is better off subsidising housing than putting a price ceiling. Even great socialist australia knows this.

Walker is one of the worst governors in the US currently serving.

Government already subsidizes housing here in the US. It's completely fucked because it's tied to developer deals more often than not.

Yes. I can see the World Trade Center from my corner. There is a lot of development going on because I live in a good part of New Jersey. The city is threatening and using eminent domain to grab property cheaply for developers to build "luxury" apartments. They give them tax deals that absolve them from paying property taxes for 50 years. The developers then turn around and rent the small apartments to out of towners for as much as you would pay a mortgage because they come with a parking spot and a community gym. That is the city's idea of subsidizing housing.

I understand you can't stop gentrification but it is very annoying to see the town's leaders sell out the people who have been living here forever in order to attract wealthy outsiders who can fund their state elections. So keeping rent down so natives aren't priced out of town is important to me.

War Man are you in the Army yet so you can fight real war? Or are you still trying to pass some sort of equivalency exam that proves you are in fact more than a meat popsicle? When are you gonna start paying taxes so you can actually have some merit when you complain about the gov'ment?

R I P Warman. i hope your soul finds peace, having given your mortal life as sacrifice to the American military-industrial complex, when those that come behind you find the answer to clean energy and tolerance in alternatives to the world raping narrow minded self loathing willfully ignorant generations that spawned the most consumerist society before the chinese came of world raping narrow minded self loathing willfully ignorant age.

it always struck me as a little odd that America celebrates itself as the world's greatest ever democracy and meritocracy, and yet you guys love political dynasties. repressed wish to have your own royalty? I mean it's almost as bad as when you elect movie stars and celebrities to positions of power.

bring back the queen. at least no pretenses.

People with money prefer known quantities. Big donors control who runs by making it impossible for anyone without a large amount of donated money to even make the attempt.

Yes we know, shouldn't the constitution have been drafted a bit better to prevent big money owning the country?
Most countries have some kind of mechanism in place.

Seems like a serious omission, or was it intentional?
Maybe the writers weren't the patriots they're portrayed as.

This. America desperately wants its own royalty. Why do you think they put people like Beyonce up on a pedestal? Musical talent?

I really don't care for her music but hating on other people's taste of music is very obnoxious to me. Kanye, Beyonce , Justin B,and others are ll incredibly talented.
