1) Some friends and I rented a townhouse in a brand new complex. Fast forward a few months. The inner core of townhouses were a mess with crap strewn all over the place. The outer ring of townhouses (including ours) were neat and well maintained. Onsite property man explained> the City paid the rent for inner core townhomes on behalf of welfare types. Non-welfare tenants paid full market cost.
2) Dad was a Masonry contractor. He performed masonry repair on City owned townhomes. Dad comes home one hot summer day, pissed. Sixty years old repairing a porch in the blazing sun. Around 1pm 25 year old dude comes out in his PJ’s, drinking a cold beer. Tells my Dad, “sure must be tough working on a hot day like today”
