Of course that lisping a-hole Greg Stanton is up for this. He doesn’t have to live in it.

FDR won his way into office in part by ridiculing the economy under Hoover (who made the same big-government spending mistakes as other Dim and Rep presidents).

On such attack was pointing out the prevalence of “Hoovertowns,” which were encampments with scrap-wood and canvas housing.

FDR ridiculed Hoover, won the office, and then adopted Hoover’s very same economic tactics and put them on steroids. Voila, a Great Depression.

*****************

Has anyone noticed how much state-run media time is devoted to trying to glorify super small living quarters? Isn’t there even a program on television/cable that is devoted to super small living quarters?

But, SHHHhhhh, the current president is a Dhimmicrat and a socialist. We mustn’t call these “Obamavilles.” It’s just another 8 years of peace and prosperity, a veritable Utopia.

I have seen these living containers at hunting and fishing shows. They make good hunting camp living spaces that you can easily haul to your next hunting lease.

Other than a weekend living space, I don’t think so!

I’ll stick with my paid for house instead of an expensive box trailer. At that rental price the tractor should come with it.

I worked for a Trade Show company until right after 9/11.
We shipped the builds (fancy sets for the displays) all over the world, and in many countries like Mexico, Brazil, etc. had to hire guards to prevent theft of the shipping containers. People would steal them to make ‘houses’.

And we be horrified that people were so poor and desperate as to make these things their homes. I guess ‘tiny houses’ are the new ‘heroin chic’.

People used to joke about someone living in a dumpster, basically a shipping container is just bigger than a dumpster.

I have only seen two lengths of containers, twenty foot and forty foot and they are both eight feet wide so how do they get 740 square feet with two containers? Maybe they meant 640?
