Here we go again with the eviction moratoriums! All the tenant has to do is lie about being affected by the fires.

These tinpot dicators on the city council will continue to use whatever “temporary emergency” powers they grabbed during COVID. Open the door and its damn hard to close it again.

Cut the crap. Just steal all the houses. That is what you want to do.

Yea. Landlords have to subsidize government failure again. The left is working overtime to undermine private property rights.

At what cost? And who, exactly, will be reimbursing the landlords? And where, exactly, will those funds come from? And really, shouldn’t this be extended to groceries, gas, utilities, car payments, insurance, clothing, entertainment, etc.? Is it right that this assistance be provided only by landlords? Sigh...

That is a taking.

The city just needs to pay the full rent for everyone in the city for the next six months. That should do the trick.

Private small landlords ARE the enemy in BLUE states and the various governments there have declared war on them via lawfare/legislation that singles them out.

In other words, LA County wants the landlords to pay the rent.

And this would be on top of any mortgage, insurance, property tax, income tax, repair and maintenance, etc.

This is EVIL. It is authoritarianism on par with Castro, Chavez, Maduro, etc. poorly masked as kindness.

All to advance the monopolization/control of our housing stock by government-controlled ‘private’ globalist entities, further disenfranchising Americans.

Another problem is that freakin’ California Coastal Commision.....that abomination needs to be stripped of power and completely disbanded.

In what amounts to an HOA from hell, it’s a handful of little hitlers making the lives of 10s of thousands miserable with their asinine rules.

Why is it the LA gooooberment does not tell the banks “you must not collect any mortgage payment(s) from any landowner or borrower for the next 6 months as we have suspended any and all rent collections”?

I mean, is it because there are more renters than landlords or banks?

Only the people whose houses burnt down should qualify.

Bingo. More renters vote and vote DEMONRAT. Landlords, as a class are far fewer.

That’s right. It appears that there is no consideration for the landlords.

The proposal to temporarily bar landlords from evicting renters will also encompass
those whose livelihood was affected, including landscapers, housekeepers and caregivers.

It would apply to all of LA County, including the
areas devastated by the Eaton and Palisades fires.
