The last apartment that I lived in the landlords would bomb the roach population back and forth from one end of the building to the other.
To this day I have nightmares over those things, probably the worst was this drunk woman (a hardcore Clinton fan BTW) who lived on the top floor of our building and one night she left chicken cooking in her oven and went to the bar and forgot about it which pretty much ended up burning out the entire top floor. When the firemen came and put the fire out with the water hoses, all the water went down between the walls and washed out literally millions of cockroaches, the stairs where absolutely black covered and crawling with them. It was right after that I moved. That was around 1995, I was paying maybe $600 -$700 for a one bedroom apartment in Queens New York city. A few months ago I looked up the same area, apartments are now going for $2700, so they pretty much added an extra $24,000 a year you have to pay in rent in 20 years. Liberals got their way. Now they can pay through the nose to live under Marxism while I laugh at them from afar and call them suckers lol lol
