Have you noticed how all of these socialist candidates come from wealthy, well-connected families, attend elite universities, and then step straight into politics without ever holding a typical private-sector job?
Weird.
They're not freezing your rent, they're freezing your housing providers' income, while their expenses keep increasing.
The point isn't to make your housing affordable, it's to make providing housing financially inviable, so government(s) can seize the unmanageable properties.
Our lack of financial literacy is going to destroy us.

During the Iranian Revolution, leftist students, communists, and Muslims were all united in overthrowing the Shah.
The leftists celebrated when Khomeini returned in 1979. They thought they defeated capitalism and imperialism. It didn’t last long.
Around 30,000 leftists who helped the Islamic regime consolidate power were soon executed. That’s where the term “useful idiot” comes from.
They served their purpose and were no longer needed. Muslims had always despised their progressive ideals and couldn’t wait to get rid of them.
One of the women celebrating in the picture was killed, the other fled the country for her life.
It’s bizarre that almost 50 years later, Western leftists are making the exact same mistake and allying with Muslims. They will have the same fate.
I went to a prestigious prep school (Choate).
By default, I know way too many people who slid into the USAID grifter circuit.
It’s way worse than you think: nauseating buzzword-filled circle-jerks on Zoom calls, business-class conferences in Zurich, private champagne dinners, and endless layers of outsourcing (each one taking their fat cut) - all on unlimited expense accounts.
Saying 90% of the “aid” disappears into admin, overhead, and fraud is a gross understatement.
And for what?
So these con artists can LARP as humanitarian saviors, feign respectability, and send their kids to private school…
…all on the backs of hardworking American taxpayers.
It's a lifestyle racket. A facade.
And the worst part is that we're all expected to hold these people in high regard.
In July 1985, over a billion people watched Live Aid.
Months earlier, Michael Jackson and Lionel Richie had written "We Are the World." All of it was a response to a famine in Ethiopia.
Almost nobody remembers who actually caused the famine. 🧵
