    THAT change in orientation will be very interesting...
    It will be easier and more effective than you can possibly imagine
    The message will change and the "evidence" will be re-labled to appear to come from the other side of the table - corroborating, not exculpating

    Big landlords eat the loss or extract something in court, small landlords go out of business, Wall Street speculator firms snap up all their properties and double the rent. Pretty much just like what happened in 2008 with all the people who lost their houses. Wall Street gobbled em up and flipped em.

    The key to the WEF's dreams of modern serfdom is transferring as much property out of the hands of individuals and into corporate balance sheets as possible.
    Wall Street didn't flip them, they still own them. But Wall Street makes it sound better, I have read it is Chinese money that is ran through Wall Street, the average folks have no idea how much real estate China owns through the shell games of Wall Street...

    50% of America is living in poverty
    Seems like there's some fake news in all this. If 50% of America is really living in poverty, then that should mean that about 90% or more of the rest of the planet is also. Could it be that statistics and/or definitions are again being manipulated to achieve an outcome? Don't know, but ......

    I bet they are if the money from programs, you know, the money taken from others, we're not counted. Then 50% seems a reasonable number...

    Chinese REIT investments in the US, soon it will be like Mexico where nobody owns any land except for a very few.

    Only the top 20% of earth's population can afford refrigeration for food.

    90% sounds like a VERY optimistic figure.

    The government shouldn't have gotten involved in the first place. They will only make it worse (and are).

    If we're going to move away from personal property and towards communal property stand by for everything to get MUCH worse.

    This is your daily reminder that socialism and communism always ends in starvation and genocide.
    And that you can vote your way in, but you always have to shoot your way out - thus the hatred for RKBA by the tinpot apparatchiks

    Many of those in true poverty are eligible for free housing and the whole shebang. Their $500-$700 a month is an allowance because everything else is paid for by the government.

    Many are already getting their phones and cable for free what else do you need money for except for the expensive stuff many working people have to save up to buy.

    Why not bleed the system, at this point?

    Most the corporations you can get a job working for fully fund and support the agenda of the elite anyway.

    And no one has yet pointed out that this is another piece of pro-big government propaganda BS...or should I have just assumed that?

    People live paycheck to paycheck by choice! Several here have already pointed out some of the incongruities in the argument being laid out.

    America, where our "poor" are overweight, own vehicles to wait in food lines, and have plenty of money for refrigerators, beer, and entertainment (phones, internet and pay TV).
