Poor Guy

We wrote about that ridiculous CHA program a few days ago, then this happens:
  • The owner of a luxury high-rise apartment complex in the West Loop is suing to evict a wheelchair-bound tenant, subsidized by the Chicago Housing Authority, who allegedly shot and killed another tenant while the man was on a stationary bike in the building’s gym.

    And the CHA says it “has begun the process of terminating” the financial assistance — worth $22,608 a year — that Reggie L. Daniel has been receiving so he could live in the one-bedroom apartment on the 15th floor at Alta at K Station, 555 W. Kinzie.
So what's this poor guy going to do for housing if he loses his voucher? Though we suppose he won't have to worry about it for 10 or 20 years.

Oh wait.....Cook County.....we forgot.....probably only 6 years.

Every generation makes a mistake. This generation is making one after the other.
How in the fuck does this guy get a CHA voucher on Kinzie? Where taxpayers with high paying jobs pay 2 or 3 grand a month in rent. The mayor and all the mega rich workout at east bank club which is right down the street from where this sub human resided and killed another tenant who was actually a decent human being. But this generation of assholes is blocking roadways and inciting violence over a presidential candidate that they say is insulting people.

Don't worry Reggie. You'll have to do some time though. But don't worry Foxx has your back. Just tell the courts about how hard you have it as a black man living in that racist apartment. That should reduce time by more than 75%.

How about the useless investigative reporters do a story on the annual cost of federal subsidies vouchers! And while you're at it print all the downtown addresses! Or is it only police addresses they print?

There was a story about how crime in the Atlanta area was spreading out through the suburbs. Research showed the crime was following Section 8 vouchers. Many of the voucher recipients became little crime cancer nodules in the suburbs. Baby Mama's Thug Banger boyfriend and his posse saw a wonderful opportunity in practicing their criminal craft in the suburbs.

Section 8, the gift that keeps on giving.

Lol and they want to steal our pensions. Even have the Public screaming to crush our pensions. And they pay some ex-gangster who got spined 30 years ago all that cash to live high like that? God damn Liberalism is a virus. If it aint bad enough we pay hundreds of thousands of $$ to support a Chechen family, who later bombs us at a Marathon, we also pay this asshole to live better then us jag offs that busted our ass's all our lives for everything we got.

Your a Moron if you vote for these Democrat cocksuckers.

Reading is fundamental and so is personal responsibility. This asshole is a idiot plain and simple. But to say that all people on Section 8 are like this is a foolish statement. Number one, CHA is sitting on almost half a billion dollars. Instead of rehabbing buildings they pass out vouchers and pay expensive rents. Fire the person in charge and demand change. Two, read the book BOSS. This is done by design. Build the projects, now the land they are on gets expensive, tear them down but tell the people who lived in the building, good luck finding a place now. It would be okay if private companies were hiring but check this out, if you have a misdemeanor weed offense you cannot even sell weed now. Kim Foxx has nothing to do with any of this but you Chicken Little assholes out there will think of any excuse to incite something. This guy is going to jail for life. But the problem remains, if companies are not hiring, where will people live and how can the afford it?

Years ago they started taking section 8 at the building 10 E Ontario somehow robberies increased by 40% along the river walk between Michigan Ave and the water Connon. Most victims were from out of town staying at the hotels there so arrest and prosecution was tough. Finally, police stake outs netted 4 goofs who lived at, wait, you guessed it. 10 E Ontario.

The poor guy who was killed was a day trader I believe who owned his own company. A good productive member of society who was killed by a piece of shit who's done nothing his entire life. This fucking savage was unemployed getting around 2 grand to live in a building he had no business ever being in. The system is fucked.

If he has one (eligibility is set on assets and income limits) -- the answer is "No."

Not sure of circumstances, but he has been on wheels since being shot 30 years ago.

...and he was given the world, and he didn't learn a f___ing thing. Case of arrested development -- literally, in this case.

Same here -- why do you think ofc. in BATAVIA are carrying Narcan now?

"A crumbling, dangerous South Side creates exodus of black Chicagoans leaving Chicago for Atlanta"

"In my mind's eye, the South Shore of my youth was pristine.

"With its big old homes and apartments, four grocery stores and doctors' offices, South Shore had all kinds of residents — laborers, city workers, artists, businessmen and executives — raising their families side by side. A black child in the '80s could feel insulated from the trappings of urban life. It's where first lady Michelle Obama called home.

"Auburn-Gresham, the Southwest Side neighborhood where I would later attend and graduate from grade school, was no different. My block on South Aberdeen Street felt downright suburban, with boys my age more concerned with riding bikes, watching cable TV and playing video games than engaging in gang conflict.

"We never encountered anything like a little girl shot dead while jumping double Dutch, or grandmothers wounded by stray gunfire inside their homes, or young men so hardened by street life that they targeted the children of gang rivals as well as the rivals themselves.

"Now a multitude of black residents have called it quits with their hometown, searching for safety and prosperity beyond the city limits — my own friends and family among them.

"It's been a humbling experience watching as those worlds, those communities filled with stable families and businesses, crumble into the dust..."

http://www.chicagotribune.com/news/opinion/commentary/ct-black-exodus-chicago-20160318-story.html

A white child in the '50s and '60s was good too -- until about 1964.

Oh -- the place isn't "crumbling into the dust." No passive tense, please. It's "being smashed into the dust" by many of the people who live there.

Check out the ones running the CHA Voucher Program. HUD regs has determined rents be moderately priced. Each city decides the rest. HUD says Renters must devote 30 per cent of their income to the Owner, the rest shall be paid to the Owner by CHA. Sounds like Chicago Managers blew the wad of dough from the Feds. So now the article reads, CHA Managers are going to change the rules and will reduce the Fed's portion after the fact. Heck. Taxpayers lose again at the hands of mighty stupid Chicago Managers. It takes a newspaper to find these blatant mishandling of Taxpayers dollars. Why? Is no one in Government watching the hen house like they are supposed to do? What about Audits? Do they go no where? All show and no go, ugh? Oh, that's right, the Auditors get paid too. Big time.

This is bullshit, he is getting a luxury apartment at our expense because of what? The victim's family needs to sue cha. So if I stop working and become a useless parasite the government will put me up in a luxury high-rise? Now I know why welfare has exceeded a Trillion dollars a year under this idiot. This is not a sustainable model, we cannot continue to subsidize every facet of their existence all the while blaming law enforcement for their problems. The only good thing I see from all this anti police rhetoric is sky rocketing homicide numbers of the criminal class. They are killing each other at a record setting clip, the only problem is with all that shooting too many innocents are getting killed as well.

Your philosophical retort is the problem.

First, the problem is CHA. Decent folk grew up with the foundation....."if you don't work you don't eat."

Second, now it's become.... you can't work because of asthma, or because you got popped sellin heroin, or you got caught holding up a 7-11.

Final, Sanders and Clinton will continue this trajectory. Trump has stated that he will continue with health care because he doesn't want to see Americans suffering on the street, but also has problems seeing the current abusive system maintained.
