Maine Residents Furious over $13M Tax Bill for ‘Taj Mahal’ Where Migrants Get Two Years of Free Rent
Breitbart ^ | 03/02/2014 | Warner Todd Huston

Posted on 03/02/2024 8:44:14 AM PST by ChicagoConservative27

Residents of Maine are expressing their outrage over the state’s plans to spend $13 million on constructing apartment complexes for illegal border crossers where some could be afforded up to two years of free rent.

The apartment complex plan — derisively labeled the “Taj Mahal” for illegals — took a lot of heat from residents of Brunswick during a February 20 city council meeting. The locals were upset over the fact that the same apartments that cost citizens between $1,800 and $2,300 a month were going to be handed out to illegals for free.

Thank you for referencing that article ChicagoConservative27.

"Maine Residents Furious over $13M Tax Bill for ‘Taj Mahal’ Where Migrants Get Two Years of Free Rent"


With all due respect to Constitution-respecting patriots in Maine, in addition to the likelihood of constitutionally low-information voters in Maine, Thomas Jefferson had warned us about the consequences of voter apathy.

All patriots in the nation need to come to the rescue of Maine patriots being oppressed under the boots of their Constitution-ignoring state government by doing the following.

All voters need to support hopeful Trump 47 with a new patriot Congress that will actually do its duty to guarantee each state, Maine in this example, a republican form of government.

Dear mortgage company, Taxing Authority and Utilities Providers:

The State of Maine has stated that 30% is the fair price to pay for my housing costs. I currently pay 41%, Please coordinate with the Tax and Utilities groups to make the “required” adjustments.

Maine crybabies: It suck to be you, doesn’t it?

No sympathy. Elections have consequences.

exactly- native Mainers are very conservative- always have been- then the rats got sick of their own states, and moved to Maine because of how beautiful it is there- and the rats overwhelmed the native population in terms of numbers- and the rats are who changed the state to majority blue- The natives had nothing to do with voting in the rats-

Not only would Maine taxpayers be stuck with the $13 million to house these illegals for free but also the cost to clean up the mess the illegals will leave as they trash their free housing turning it into a third world slum, brothel and drug emporium.

$13 million isn’t going to buy much. Maybe 40 units?

Maine is no longer like life should be. I remember well when it was.

Gone. Liberalism destroys everything it gets its hands on.

Liberal Democrat judges and courts stopped requiring work for welfare a long time ago. Same to no drug testing to receive welfare.

"My question is are these furious residents still going to vote rat in November?"

Depends on whether you believe they actually want to stop this, or they simply want free apartments too. Think about it.

Tar & feathers.

Both for those making these decisions and those who voted for them.

What about work for rent? Si?

“MaineHousing points out that migrants will be required to pay 30 percent of their income in much-reduced rent fees if they get a job.”

I think this would discourage getting a job.
