I’ll never forget a story my electrical contractor friend told me. He used to take Section 8 renovation contracts all the time because there were so many of them. As he’s finishing a job in a very nicely, brand new renovated apartment, the tentant slated for that rides his motorcycle into the house and parks it in the living room.

The reason I posted this was that I found it interesting since I’ve seen it first hand years ago in Boston.

I grew up in Roslindale, a town in Boston that was mainly working middle class families.

Then section 8 started moving into the 3 family homes on the street and things went down hill fast, this was in the early 90’s.

Thanks government!

I actually parked my motorcycle in the living room of my apartment one winter (many years ago). I did that because I was tired of coming outside and finding kids playing all over it while their worthless parents either watched, or were nowhere to be found.

Hey, leave it on the street and it'll be gone in the morning!

Mrs. JimRed's sister's husband rented to a white trash guy who rebuilt the engine of his motorcycle in the living room of the condo. Ruined the carpets. Low class is low class, regardless of color.
