Subsidized Housing in Florida - For the MIDDLE Class


I find it pretty depressing when they are now considering handing out grants to provide housing assistance for people who make 130% of the median income. Buddy, could you spare a dime?

Middle Class Housing Assistance - Palm Beach

And don't forget, 2 years ago, in the statetwide and national elections in Florida, EVERY SINGLE incumbent won reelection. That's right. Every congressman, every state house rep, and every state senator who was ran for re-election won the race (and many did not even face an opponent). Over 100 different office holders did such a GREAT job that none were voted out. How's that for gerrymandering and the decline of democracy? Of course, this was also in the midst of the real estate boom, so perhaps everyone was so happy that their house was worth double that they didn't care who was actually running the state.

Please take this into account when you go to vote today.

Over on another Blog, I read an article by a Dr. Roubini, commenting on the real estate situation ....
I think he pretty much covered everything in real estate, when he said:

>>>""" NOW, IS NOT THE TIME TO BUY, SELL, OR EVEN OWN REAL ESTATE""<<<<<

SSSOOO!!! Once again, we have government getting involved, at tax payers expense, to subsidize another 'pork project', that some 'fat cat' will make money off of....

Face it...THE SYSTEM IS BROKEN....

Just voting some else in is NOT going to change it.....

I haven't voted in 38 years, so you can't blame me for all that's gone wrong!!!!

We have a Constitution, that's being abrogated in plain sight of EVERYBODY, and NOBODY cares to do anything.....

SSOO, I ask you dear citizen, why do you vote for politicans who are abrogating your/their constitution???...

It's in their interest to get elected, """NOT"" yours....

""IF"", you doubt any of what I say...pull a $$ DOLLAR $$$ bill out of your wallet, and see what it says on there.....
Federal Reserve Note!!!! |||THAT"S NOT MONEY|||

The Consitition, specifically says, that $$ MONEY $$$ CAN ONLY BE GOLD/SILVER....!!!! PERIOD !!!!

PUNISHABLE BY DEATH!!!!

""BUT"", we don't talk about that when they 'swear to uphold' the constitution.....do we????

Close your eyes to one law of the constitution, & you close your eyes to all!!!!

I vote to go to a local bar, and have another one for the road to oblivian

I may have had onezies to many NOW!!!

And I'm ready to sign the Constitution.....show me the dotted line, and pull the quill outta my butt..

See, the President isn't supposed to send troops to War, without a declaration...Funny thing [hahahaha], they haven't done that since WWII [[1942]....
SSOOO!!! What are they doing?????
Abrogating the Constitution...
Right in front of your eyes.....Are you complicitory?????

>>>> WHY, YES!!! You are!!!<<<<

What have you done to ""UPHOLD"" the Consitituion????

Voted another one of those guys in!!!!

IN ALL PROBABLITY, 70% OF ALL THE LAWS PASSED IN THE LAST 70 YEARS, ARE IN FACT ILLEGAL ACCORDING TO THE CONSTITUTION!!!!
The Constitution is VERY specific about the powers of the Ferderal Government, and [quote]....those ""NOT"" listed there, are the powers of the state......

Look around and tell me what you see....the Feds every where....
They're coming to take you away, you see.....[just like in that old song!!!!]

SSOO!!! Housing Construction in Florida is certainly SLOWING down....and in some cases nearly stopping.....
JUST THINK NOW HERE ONCE!!!!

What are all those guys, who've been building those McMansions going to do....live off of unemployment??? So that'll last 26 weeks or so...then what....
They even may lose their house, or have to put it up for sale....

Why are they subsidizing this NOW, when in 1 to 2 years, these guys will be more than happy to have somebody just take over the payments so they can head down the road....

THIS IS GOING TO BE A LONG, LONG SLOW GRIND DOWN, OVER THE NEXT 5 TO 7 YEARS....

IT AIN'T GOING TO PRETTY, AND IT AIN'T GOING TO BE NICE...THERE WILL BE TEARS!!!!

My vote is for a PBR.. [Pabst Blue Ribbon]....It won the 1892 election for best beers..I'll vote for a winner anytime!!!

Anonymous said...

Nice. Subsidized housing on the coast. I'll be very interested to know how many families this helps, and how many builders it helps.

As for PBR on the ballot - G, I like yer thinkin'. As write-in candidates, I would also like to nominate the following:

- Genessee Cream Ale (for my homies in the NE).
- Schlitz (the 3rd member of the 3 premium brews in Milwaukee).
- Rainier (for my homies in the NW).

Hahahah Genny! I remember all my uncles drinking that by the bucket fulls!

You know, Mickey Mouse calls FL home, we should vote for him!

Missie,
You head the head on the nail. It's a dirty little secret, but "Mickie Mouse" has been secretly controlling this state for decades.

So put on your polyester uniform and smile, everyone! It's another Mickey Mouse Re-Election Day!!!

Anonymous said...

Well think about it!!!!

You know that in the near term, there are going to be a lot of construction workers/contractors, without incomes to support these costs associated with owning a homes in Florida....Big Brother could step-in and take over the payments....Joe Six-pack [PBR], could head up I-75/95, and, and start a new life-system in another state.....

Hell!! If it meant we got rid of one more Floridian, we'd have more beer to share, with each other....


NOW I'D VOTE FOR THAT!!!!

Here's to Goofy, Dumbo, & Mickie! And to all the other alternate names you can come up with for the morons who spec-u-vested in Florida the past couple years.

May they all drown in their greed, and live in "interesting times".

MAN!!! Have you seen the price of Disney tickets lately....

THEY ARE UP AGAIN, THIS YEAR...

What Clown could afford to take his family there, for a week.....

I mean your talking $3000-$5000 for a family for 1 week....

SURE IT"S FUN GOING THERE AND IT'S FUN SPENDING MONEY....BUT PORKY PIG IS {{{{{PORKED}}}}}

My question is....

With this grant money, would they be building Cluster Homes Communities? Because, im my lifetime I have never seen one of those developements "Prosper", they end up dumps with in 10 to 15 years.

I read somewhere, that one WallStreet pundit, claimed The Housing industry represented 10% of our entire enconomy.....

IMHO, here in Florida, it's MUCH, MUCH, MORE.....

Maybe the 2nd/3rd industry, after tourism and drugs....

>>>"""IF THAT'S THE CASE ""<<<

||||"""HOUSTON, WE'VE GOT A SERIOUS PROBLEM, HERE""""||||

Looking down the street here in our development, I see 20 houses under construction, with nobody working on them. [on that street]

[on another street]..I see maybe 50-60 houses under construction, with may 8 - 10 trucks total....
about 20 slabs poured, without any masons in sight....

SOME HOW, I FEEL LIKE "WILEY COYOTE", and we've just run off the edge of the cliff, and haven't discovered it yet!!!!

Crazy G has got an idea, that would guarantee a house for everybody...PERIOD....

If I had run for Governor, I would have insisted, that we raise the minimum wage to $50.00/hr....That way, EVERYBODY working would have enough money to buy a McMansion on the beach....
Remember, President Hoover, saying, two cars in every garage, two chickens in every pot...
Well!!! A vote for Crazy, would be a vote for >>>PROSPERITY FOREVER<<<

""If it sounds Crazy, Crazy can do it!!!"""

Anonymous said...

Crazy is as crazy does - Crazy G can do! Soon Disney will have a "small business loan" office near the front entrance, so that, in order to afford a days fun for your family, you can take out a 2nd/3rd/4th mortgage on your house - if you're lucky enough to own one, that is.

Missie - there is no doubt that this affordable-housing grant will be for condos and/or townhomes. And yes, you are right - it will end up bringing in the dregs, and it will quickly fall into disrepair. Just the nature of the beast.

Anonymous said...

Gee... I feel dumb! why?? Because, I honestly was not thinking Condo or Twon house, just single family homes, all squeeeeeezed together with maybe 12-20 feet divinging them. :) LOL

OH, Yeah..... crazy, I would have written you in on my ballot! HAHAHAHAHA

I just read this article that was in the St. Pete Times:

"Sunshine won't pay the bills

More people still move to Florida. But the rising cost to live here now drives struggling workers away.

By IVAN PENN
Published August 12, 2006"


I know it is a couple months old, but still very good. :)

Excellent article, Missie. Would've fit in perfectly with last week's Florida Room topic - people getting fed up and leaving because of the housing costs.

That saying about:

"" I TAKE PART OF MY PAY IN SUNSHINE""..

was prevelant even 25 years ago....

wages in So. Fla. were abissmal, even back then....

The Ft Laudadale RE association hasn't printed the Oct sales figures, and its passed the time they did for the last 3 months. Does anyone have any stats? It wouldn't suprise me if the RE stopped providing the info.
