Well they blew up the Chicken Man in Philly last night!
But if this scenario were the case, then they likely would have visa sponsorship to work a white collar job. That would thus make them documented. Many banks have lending guidelines for this scenario, which again makes this law even more useless
Right, it is a loan, which means the principle is spent to buy a house for someone and they pay you back over 30 years. That is a huge capital investment with a long repayment period.
California also has low supply of housing for citizens, so why specifically help undocumented immigrants get housing when their claim is far less solid than a resident with proper standing?
This data is bullshit. The results were from 1 week after Biden announced he was stepping down. As of this week, Harris is consistently polling over 50%.
Also, voters have to choose from “Let’s find a ceasefite” Harris and “Fuck them, Isreal should nuke them” Trump. It’s not even a question, stop pretending it is one.
My dad and my stepmom would love to do more for our 2 year old, but my dad still works, my step-mom has a lot of health issues that they have to maintain appointments for, and they also have like 6 other grandchildren from my stepbrothers. My wife and I live an hour away and do very well financially, so they not only don’t have the time, but could not realistically care for him that often.
My mom is well meaning, but my step-dad is a moron and they own like 4 vehicles and only 1 works. They are not poor, just dumb when it comes to cars. My mom is also a narcissist and it does not occur to her that if she asked to help more that she could. We’ve talked to her about it, and she just doesn’t attempt to do anything.
My grandparents, now in their 80s, love every minute with the little guy, but they don’t have the energy they used to.
Contrast that with out daycare: the facility is run by two sisters and their retired father helps out to keep busy. They hire teachers at a living wage and absolutely love the kids that attend. Our little guy has not yet had his 2nd birthday and he knows almost all of his letters, he can count to 14, he knows his shapes, and he has a great vocabulary already. He has a best friend, he is very social with the other kids and they all share very well. The older kids are all very well spoken, polite, and respectful to each other. We are so lucky we found such a great place.
Grandma and grandpa simply could not provide him with that. He is in a place where he is safe and loved at all times, and the cost to put him there should be tax deductible. We burn through the child care tax deduction by February.
And anyone who thinks Trump/Vance is the right choice for families is a fucking moron. It’s ridiculous
Well, on average each state has 2% of the population. So, you could say any state with more than 6m people represents an above average population
Good luck, looks like the priced it by the pound
He lost his reelection a while ago. His district changed due to redistricting. I met him at the Huntington Woods 4th of July parade. Really seemed like a great guy
Oooh, that was a really well thought out burn. Thank you for adding to the discourse.
Is she falling asleep in this picture, too? Lol
How is he putting Israeli lives over Americans? You can say he favors Isreali lives over Palestinian ones, but at what point are we going to accept that Isreal is at war, not the US? We cannot force Isreal to just stop, it’s not that simple.
Where there is an apple, there is a banana. There is no apple there, friends. She is just a really good boxer.
No, it’s more like 3-400. The key point here is not the range, but the charging time
Or perhaps they could have applied their time to learning a trade or skill that paid more than a minimum wage, entry level job meant for teenagers?
Edit: This person I’d a Vietnam vet and we’ll past social security. They are likely eligible for a military pension as well as social security. They claimed they could not save for retirement while working what sounded like a solid job, but are they just unaware of the retirement benefits they already have??
That is not going to happen
I doubt Newsome, you wouldn’t want both from California
AOC is actually not old enough to be president. Ironic given how old the candidates are…I agree, Biden has my vote
No, you’re a fool if you truly believe this. Every generation has had some form of this feeling. Imagine considering having children during WW1, or WW2, or during Vietnam or Korea? Then after that we had McCarthyism and the Cold War - all seemingly hopeless days. Yet there is still so much beauty in the world, and there is so much that makes life worth living.
My son will turn 2 in a few months. It’s tough being a parent, but it is entirely worth it. You cannot give into myopia - every time I hear him laugh, I am reminded that there is good in the world and it is worth fighting for. He will have his own challenges to face in life, but it is our job as a society to equip him, and all of the next generation, with the tools they need to succeed.
I’m troubled about the future, but you cannot make that stop you from striving for better days. As Marcus Aurelius said, never let the future disturb you. You will meet it, if you have to, with the same weapons of reason which today arm you against the present.
I’ve been re-reading the Lord of the Rings lately, and there is a lot there on this topic, but I always think back to Sam. We all should be so lucky to have a friend like that, but what he says when all hope seems to be lost is truly striking:
“It’s like the great stories, Mr. Frodo, the ones that really mattered. Full of darkness and danger they were, and sometimes you didn’t want to know the end because how could the end be happy? How could the world go back to the way it was when so much bad has happened? But in the end, it’s only a passing thing this shadow, even darkness must pass. A new day will come, and when the sun shines, it’ll shine out the clearer. I know now folks in those stories had lots of chances of turning back, only they didn’t. They kept going because they were holding on to something. That there’s some good in this world, Mr. Frodo, and it’s worth fighting for.”
Tolkien wrote this after his experiences fighting in The Somme. If he could find hope and found the courage to keep striving for better days, then so should we.
The word you’re looking for is etcetera. And unless you plan to return to community banks where you have to get to know the local banker to get a mortgage, you need this system.
I’m not sure how tying this to capitalism makes sense…lending is a risk, they are betting that you’ll remain employed and will continue to pay them - there is a chance you won’t and you pay a premium to get money now. Communist countries also have this system, but it is more centrally controlled by the State.
