Paying the Rent

CAL THOMAS COMMENTARY AUGUST 5, 2021

         IN ONE WAY I AM MYSTIFIED AS TO WHY THE BIDEN ADMINISTRATION IS EXTENDING ITS MORATORIUM

ON EVICTIONS OF PEOPLE NOT PAYING RENT ON THEIR APARTMENTS. DURING THE HEIGHT OF THE

PANDEMIC IT WAS UNDERSTANDABLE, BUT VACCINES ARE AVAILABLE FOR ANYONE WHO WANTS THEM

AND JOB OPENINGS ARE PLENTIFUL. MANY COULD RETURN TO PREVIOUS JOBS WITH HIGHER PAY IF THEY

WANTED TO AND PAY THEIR RENT.

         BUT THIS IS THE DIRTY LITTLE SECRET. IF GOVERNMENT PAYS MORE THAN A JOB, MANY LOSE

INCENTIVES TO WORK, THE COMMUTE, THE COST OF TRANSPORTATION AND THE HASSLE.

         THEN THERE ARE THE LANDLORDS. DON’T THEY HAVE THE RIGHT TO MAKE A LIVING AND PAY THEIR

BILLS? BIDEN WANTS MONEY FOR THEM SO THEY CAN DO THAT, BUT THIS IS A RE-CREATION OF THE

WELFARE STATE WHERE GOVERNMENT IS KING AND THE REST OF US ARE FEUDAL SUBJECTS.

         THIS COUNTRY IS CHANGING AND NOT FOR THE BETTER. AN AGING PRESIDENT WHO HAS COGNITIVE

PROBLEMS IS BEING RUN BY HARD LEFT ACTIVISTS LIKE OBAMA HOLDOVER VALERY JARRETT. MIGRANTS

ARE BRINGING COVID AND MORE INTO THE COUNTRY, WHICH WE ARE QUICKLY LOSING. GOD HELP US. I’M

CAL THOMAS.
