Ben Carson's rent increases can empower domestic abusers

"We knew Secretary of Housing and Urban Development Ben Carson’s idea to encourage self-sufficiency would hurt..."

Welfare is not meant to be a lively hood, it is meant to bring relief for a short while....abusers here are those who expect to live forever on the Government tit.

Make them get off their lazy @$$e$ and work to pay for rent for a nice place so they have a sense of pride for their home and they’ll think twice before they chance losing everything over jail for domestic abuse.

Remember there are now MORE JOBS than there are the unemployed.
The plantation is CLOSED. Now go out there and work.

How dare this administration insist that people do more to support themselves!!! Why ... who knows what THAT could lead to??!!!!

[Rusty0604]

That just about sums up this article.

New York is having regrets.

THANK YOU!!!!!

Don’t procreate with thugs.

This means their partner has kept them from their finances, wouldn’t let them work, harassed them at work by showing up or calling excessively, or purposely destroyed their credit.

Inshallah!

[a fool in paradise]

>>wouldn’t let them work

Doesn’t sound like you’d qualify for government assistance if you are ABLE to work

When are we going to have a campaign to lower the number of single mothers with children. Maybe when we stop rewarding them for their actions?

I know whatcha mean! I was sauteing onions, peppers and mushrooms today for some super-easy cioppino. Some of the onions got a little brown.

If that ain't Global Warming-caused, nothin' is! Too Trumpin' much warm!!

BTW, if you want the recipe, I'd be glad to oblige.

[SaveFerris]

Recipes are always good!

Especially if I can use low-cost ingredients.

(Got to add some hot dogs to those BBQ beans I made (1/2 leftover) - BIG can of Van Camp’s with a dent in the side - so I used it up. BBQ sauce, ketchup, paprika, onion powder, garlic salt, and some frozen green and red pepper (chopped) from last years garden....).

Global warming is why IHOP is changing to IHOb. Notice the “b” in global

Let me help us in understanding this moron.

...Women in abusive relationships are likely to leave abusers when the rent’s too high. Of the 25 percent of women abused by partners, many stay with or return to abusers because there’s not enough room in shelters or available affordable housing. Higher rent will only increase the likelihood of staying in abusive relationships to avoid homelessness...

Compare the first bolded sentence with the last bolded sentence. They are saying exactly opposite things. The author of this drivel is clearly suffering from TDS and using lots of that medical marijuana the alleviate it.

Leftists are mentally unstable.

They have to create excuses for why they believe the world doesn't work the way they believe it should.

They have a compulsive need to rationalize, makes excuses, find hidden meaning (racism, sexism, etc) for their denial of reality.

You hit one of my hot button issues with that comment. I am beyond tired of paying for everyone else foibles. Here illegally, cannot speak language or hold a job, no problema, here is a subsidy; Have kids, not married, no problema, here are some bennies, some money and help for you on someone elses dime. Quit school before graduating, now spend day taking or dealing drugs to sustain your habit, no problema, we have some bennies, some treatment centers and some money to see you through all on some stiffs back. Being a member of the taker class has now completely over come the producer class and I am tired of being the dupe who did all the “right’ things in life and an sentenced to underwriting a ton of bad decisions because one particular group, the DC scum bags want more votes to stay in power by doling out largess.

Were the eggs from free-range chickens and the cheese from grass-fed, happy cows? There’s part of your problem. Factor in global warming and you have an omelet tragedy of Shakespearean proportions.

OMG!! Probably makes the globe WARMER TOO! IDIOCY.
