C-roy is not immoral. It is rent regulation that is immoral. Stealing from taxpayers to subsidize layabouts. There is no inalienable right to live in lower manhattan.
how long does it take for you to get up off your ass? 2 decades seems like overkill to me unless you’re handicapped.
Can my taxes and utilities be stabalized?
It really is shocking, many of these rent regulated tenants. You can’t even find a 1-bedroom in CHICAGO in the ghetto for $625. Why would anyone have symathy for this guy?
Hello, you can’t afford to live ANYWHERE in the US without free money from somebody. The only place for you is a trailer park! There is a reason they exist!
C-roy: I can only hope that someday someone tells you how and where you can live your life.
i know that block, it faces the park.
yo, C-Roy, being heartless is a WHOLE lot more immoral than rent regulation.
Spare me Anonymous 9:40,
Listen to Mr. Putz’s whining. “My fear is I won’t be able to live in the city anymore.” Well boo god dammed hoo. I must have missed that Amendment to the Constitution that protects his right to live in the EV, in someone else’s property mind you, nearly for free. Rent control laws are immoral in part because they breed the type of entitlement mentality on display here. Just disgusting. The truth is that this little dose of reality is probably the best thing to happen to the good people of 47 E. 3rd St. since, lets say about 1978.
9:01, this doesn’t happen all the time. this is not the same as an owner taking a regulated apartment for their own use … they emptying an entire stabilized building. 9:06, the story has been in the news for a year because the lawsuit has taken that long and the unusual precedent. june, thanks….
c-roy,
perhaps the person doesn’t make much money so could not save?
