The Political Thread

[Kiffy Lube]

Ah man, my Uncle called me earlier to tell me he was drunk and won at Bingo. He'd probably join if he knew how a computer worked.

Toronto had more homicides at one point than New York City (I believe that was summer this year, not sure what the stats are now). Just think about that. A city that has farrrrr more people had less homicides.

it’s not like no one gets shot in Canada. All the Jane and Finch assholes have been relocated across the GTA so shootings and shit are a regular thing.

Damn Bloomberg......I miss the 80s New York.

 

[Deezy]

Today's New York wouldn't produce no Batman.

sooooooooo..........yay black prez......don't let him do nuttin.

Oh he did a lot, and was willing to compromise on some things. He also did a great job a deporting illegals (more than Trump, Clinton, and both Bushes combined), killed more people via airstrikes, sold more weapons to cartels, etc.

Let's not forget the executive order that created the ACA. Made everyone's premiums and deductibles go up!

 

[Lady Redfield]

No.

My uncle has me blocked on Facebook anyway lol.



I mean hell I lived in a bad city before.

Tho I doubt it will matter cause I don’t see no stupid war happening.

It’s just funny how people think Canada is this giant safe, happy place lol. There definitely are areas like that, but, a lot of crime happens in a lot of places. Unless you live out in the boonies, you would need a lot of money to survive. Typical rent in a “decent” apartment is toughly $1300 Canadian. Want an upgrade? Get fucked, the average for a townhouse, even a bungalow, is around $500,000 Canadian. My dad’s house was around $200,000 in 1989 when we moved in. He could most likely sell it for a cool million now. 4 bedroom house with a good sized backyard. It’s unbelievable how they expect anyone these days to be able to afford a house unless 10 people move in and pay.

A townhouse at $499,999 requires a $74,000 down payment. Yeah, just let me get my cash out of my fucking wallet.

Not everyone’s but okay. I know some people who had their shit improve because of it.

People on welfare don't count.

1. They weren’t on Welfare

2. They still would count if so.

ACA wasn’t perfect but not the horrible horrible thing some of you make it out to be.

They count your tax dollars

Lol, I got a house on the outside of a mostly retirement city in Arizona for 60k. Paid up front, only have to pay property tax once a year. It's not that hard to find a reasonable to place to live.

Depends where you live tbh.

The house I live in would cost 2 or 3 times as much other places.

 

[Kiffy Lube]

Maybe you should move. There are always bars to meet new people.

Thank the housing crisis for that......all those houses dropped in value crazily.

 

[Hidden Blaze]

It’s actually good cost of living where I am.

Broombox use to live close to me. He’ll tell ya it’s not expansive down this way.
