I see the pros and cons to both.
Like with renting, I've seen clauses that prohibit working on your car on the premises. Understandable, and I can see many jackwads being overly messy about it and really making a proper mess of things. And even trying to be clean about things, it still leaves a mess. But for me not working on the house ever again is fine. Not being able to work on my car is cruel and unusual torture (especially to my bank accounts).

What matters is that every potential buyer carefully weigh
the pros & cons of home ownership. It's not something
that should be seen as automatic.

I do see it is problematic when people say millennials are "failing to achieve milestones" and include home ownership in that. It's just not a good, feasible, or practical option for all.

I oppose government subsidies for home ownership.

I oppose government subsidies both direct and indirect for corporations, the wealthy and special interest groups.

So you too are at odds with the current administration, eh.

I'm going to start giving out more rainbow frubes this month, in the name of pride.

Definitely. It supports helps drive the fact America out consumes the rest of the world and history. For the environment we need smaller houses and more people living in apartments.

That would be the green thing to do.
But what is our current environmentally "woke" administration doing?
The same old same old to encourage buying the spendiest
home possible....
- Operating the largest residential lenders in the world,
Fannie Mae & Freddie Mac.
- Making property taxes & interest payments tax deductible.
- Monetary policy that causes the dollar's devaluation (ie,
inflation), which makes home ownership a highly leveraged
investment.

Biden is the old geyser I expected him to be. Except the weed thing. That one I thought he'd be more like Obama, but it turns out he's closer Reagan.

 

[Wu Wei]

I pretty much oppose everything

Yup. Summed up as what I would call tradition by now of politicians and corporate executives telling us what we have to give and do for the environment, but they themselves do nothing about it.
For this, I feel no shame, guilt, or remorse in my stubbornness, reluctance, and unwillingness to switch to an electric car. They don't generally last as long as I need a car for in a day and being that computerized makes them that much harder to fix on your own. Meaning they want me to cough up more money, but they won't cut out the private jet trips for personal use and won't quit flying to international meetings while they don't really have a reason to meet in person anymore. They don't want me to give, but they sure want me to drive a car that hearing impaired people can't hear approaching.

And don't forget all those celebrity climate activists who
live in mansions, fly in private planes, & own mega-yachts.
They want change....but for others to do.

It's legally edible at least in revoltistan, home of the 1/2 Trillion $ yacht.

Yup. Until they give up their collection of gas guzzling old cars and super cars, I'm not giving up my one gas engine car that gets better gas mileage than several of their cars combined.

That's popular fare on me yacht.

That little cartoon just made pork even more unappealing and unappetizing.
It is funny though.

I seem to have a knack for making threads that don't go very far or much of anywhere despite them covering controversial topics.
Had Revoltingest started my previous thread, I'm sure accusations of racist would be flooding in by now, lmao.
