I thought divorced men were supposed to live in filthy storage units.

The woman was living there, too, not just the toddler. I’d feel more sympathy for her if it weren’t for the two bottles of vodka.

There has got to be a story here. More likely the woman needs therapy or mental health counseling than jail.

In this day and age with section 8, food stamps and 70+ other programs how could anyone live that way?

I’ve often wondered if it would be possible to live by renting a storage unit. I don’t know how you would manage the sneaking in and out, and avoiding having a light show. You’d have to haul water in and out somehow. But at least it wouldn’t be freezing—you wouldn’t die of cold.

I lived in my car for a little while, in New York, and very nearly got a storage unit so I could park there in the evenings for safety.

Lots of people go through poor times. I was living on a few hundred dollars per month.

Now I have cars in storage...

Fortunes change as long as there is a whiff of freedom to be found.

A tent city has recently developed in the woods near me in Memphis. I’m not sure how many people are living there, but I know there are men and women and dogs. I hope there are no children. Last week I saw two men hauling a load of pallets back there in a shopping cart, likely for firewood. They don’t look like drunks and drug users. They look to be formerly middle class who have gone bust and now have no idea where to turn.

I’m also noticing more people who appear to be living in their cars.

I hate what has become of our nation. I despise these politicians wedded to wicked ideologies that do nothing but destroy and impoverish.

I wonder if ‘Storage Wars’ would do a show where one of its unit had a homeless mom and kids in it. I heard the news about her, Naples is an upper income area.

Now that the POTUS is black, this type of story is forbidden.

If the Prez is white Republican, then regardless of the condition of the economy this type of story will be liberally splashed around all day long —waaa, waaa, waaa.

But NOW?

Nah, it’s weird for it to get reported at all.

I thought that once a storage unit became a living facility, the owner of the unit had to clean it up and provide amenities...
