Reply to comment by Ziggyork in Nebraska cheerleader competes by herself at state competition, but crowd doesn't let her feel alone by BeagleWrangler
Ugh they suspended me from school for two weeks and from sports for a semester because teachers caught me smoking weed in the woods during one of the tennis meets in high school.
Honestly, wouldn’t they want me to stay busy to “keep away” from drugs, instead they just gave me more time to fuck around

Because we've read feel good stories before but they turn out to be deceiving?

I was wondering about that too!? I know that some domestic turtles grow to the size of their tanks so maybe because it was so malnourished, it didn’t grow? I’m no turtle expert though.

Well, yes. And "low income" in Denver is "Arms dealer megawealthy" in Somalia, but that's not relevant at all because... wait for it... Denver isn't Somalia

>The non-low income units will all be “luxury” priced to make up for the low rents/sales for the low-income units.
Thats the entire point. The wealthier people will be subsidising the lower income units. That's literally the intention of the law, not a problem to be complained about.

Maybe, nothing really ever happens quickly and this sounds like a step to actually getting stuff rolling. If nothing happens they may look to subsidies for builders or not. Could all be a pipe dream.

Yeah the prices are so high because there is not enough supply. People bitch about the price of housing there. The people who all own don't want more houses though because it will tank the price of their own. Vicious cycle. Still change moves in small steps and hopefully this is the beginning. Dead right on there needing to be a lot of new houses built to have any real affect on price.

Hopefully it is a boon and not another way for rich people to take advantage of something. Really needs to be large scale to have any effect on housing prices though.

Polar bears: "damn, finally, now this is the life!" You can tell how happy they are.
It is kinda sad they live in such a warm place though, that part isn't very uplifting. They have a very low body temperature, the PNW is nothing like their environment.

They are subsidized. The difference between market rate and the rate paid is the subsidy. It doesn't matter that the government agreed to forgo some benefit ($$) instead of spending money to directly subsidize.
Fantastic if you are one of the upper middle class people getting the housing subsidy. If you aren't one of those people, you paid for the subsidy.
