Time to go back to work.

Who else is landlord going to get?

This operation attacks everyone with the goal to make them all need the government to pay.

From Rocky Balboa to Fred Sanford? Now you understand how Rome fell!

What about those $600 a week unemployment payments?

[Secret Agent Man]

all of this divide and conquer crap pitting groups against groups is exactly what the libtards have been exploiting this for, among other things.

keeps peoples anger focused off of THEM.

Landlords will send a similar message to the banks. Banks will send a similar message to the government. Government will print money. Renters won’t understand why it takes more and more money to get by. But they’ll vote for whomever promises to print them even more of that money.

Time for the next wave of the crash. Then landlords default on mortgage. Then real estate crashes.

It’s a cycle, and once started, it’s about impossible to stop. Even if back to work started tomorrow, fewer people buying stuff will keep a wet blanket on GDP. A chain reaction was started, and it will have a life and mind of its own. And momentum.

Each job supports how many? Include supporting government workers, who will then lose their jobs, too. Just later. Due to lack of revenue. It will snowball, and keep itself going until it hits bottom and there is nothing left to lose, for probably 60-80,000,000 people, all told, moving from middle class to poverty.

I don’t think even Trump can save us from a depression now.

Gigantic mistake, Mr. President. Compounded every day the lockdown continues. Every. Single. Day. Hurts. Badly. 800,000 jobs lost each day. Every day.

“If we can’t work, we can’t pay and that the dignity of our people is of the utmost concern,” Lia Ferrante, with the Party of Socialism and Liberation, said.

"Dignity of our people"..? What is that even supposed to mean?

Obviously these protestors don't even know how this stuff works. Lets say they get their way, what's gonna happen? All these people that skipped rent (especially the ones who could still pay, but chose not to), without trying to work something out with their landlord, and never try to pay backrent, they're gonna get blacklisted. The landlord won't renew their leases, especially for those who never pay the skipped months. And landlords talk to each other - why do you think they request previous living references? Where are all these bums going to move to?

Not to mention, evictions are halted now but what about once that's lifted? How many non-paying tenants are going to get eviction proceedings started against them once the law allows them to proceed?

And of course, as several others have mentioned, most of these people should be getting unemployment, PLUS a bonus $600/week. How does an extra $2400 not manage to pay your month's rent? My HOUSE payment isn't even that high. Worst case, they should be talking to the landlord and getting a free delay until their unemployment checks come in. And, you better be paying it, even late, or you're gonna be on that blacklist.
