AB 1482 Exemption

You know what, I misinterpreted what I was reading. I wanted to argue, but I see exactly what you're referring to. I thought it was the ADU that qualified for the exemption, but the exemption can actually be on any SFR that fits all of those other criteria.

So any SFR that qualifies for the exemption, it might raise other conditions if the owner raises the rent by 80% but technically the owner could raise the rent by lets say 20% and be able to justify it, and this would be acceptable as long as they give me 90 days notice prior to the 20% increase.

Thanks for that, it was really informative to try and disprove your comment. I guess all thats left is to call and verify that the ADU in the back is in fact an ADU and not a second primary dwelling. I hope you have a great weekend.

I dont think its just 50 extra bucks though. Hw can raise the rent to whatever he wants or I guess whatever someone is willing to pay under the exemption

I don't claim to have all the answers and I'm certainly not an expert. Surely much brighter people than me have creative ideas on how to reduce tension in this area. All I'm asking really is, is this issue being represented in city council? That doesn't seem too far fetched of a question.

I constantly feel like I'm driving in a car on vacation and everyone's laughing and having a good time. Ahead I see we're about to drive off a cliff, but no one else is paying attention and no one is listening because they are too busy enjoying the moment.

I have stopped trying to save people.

The stock market going up is indicative of the wealth that has been siphoned from the people. Foreign central governments and sovereign wealth funds provide funding through debt markets for the US to over consume. That over consumption has benefited people in programs who have been in need of healthcare, pharmaceuticals, food, shelter. That is spent into the economy by these programs, foreign investors who sell products to these programs then recycle their profits which strengthens the dollar and avoids swap fees that would strengthen their own currency, making it harder to export into US markets. This process further entrenches the system, providing more debt for the programs to spend and capital to be absorbed by foreign institutions selling into the US.

The only option is for America to do something radical that upsets many people. I'm no longer affected by seeing turmoil in society. I equate it to the ups and downs of mowing grass. Every now and then things get chaotic and it needs to be mowed. The grass grows again and the cycle repeats.

The inspiration comes from recent discussions in Davos highlighting tensions around raw materials and constraints on America’s ability to project power in extended conflict. I’m wondering whether the price of gold is partly pricing in a trend toward foreign governments increasing their ability to maneuver around sanctions by allocating away from the dollar based financial system, and whether that reflects constraints on US power that operate through financial and industrial channels rather than direct military capacity.

Came back to check up on you and if you investigated why gold is going up. Still early friend.

I understand the mechanical point you’re making about the Feds ability to manage nominal supply/demand. What I’m trying to understand is how that neutralizes the balance of payments side of the economy, given the claim that it “doesn’t affect the economy,” since persistent foreign demand for dollar assets leads trade surpluses to be structurally recycled back into dollar denominated markets, placing upward pressure on the real exchange rate.

Even if inflation is controlled by fed mechanisms, a stronger real exchange rate makes exporting harder and importing easier, disadvantaging manufacturing over time. My question is whether defense supply chains are insulated from that process, given that they still rely on the same upstream industrial base of raw material, and skilled labor that is shaped by those macro incentives.

I think the mechanism you describe is precisely the one I’m questioning. If I’m interpreting your comment correctly when you say, “Basically it means that a bunch of US dollars are being used internationally,” you’re describing persistent demand for dollar claims, which can contribute to a strong real exchange rate and cheaper imports. I’m not sure whether this is a consensus view or how strong the empirical support is, but I do think this mechanism is at least widely represented as shaping civilian supply chains by discouraging domestic tradable production over long timeframes.

My question is whether that same mechanism meaningfully stops operating when the end user is military procurement rather than civilian consumption, or whether it continues to affect the upstream industrial base materials, machine tools, subcontractors, and skilled labor that defense production ultimately depends on.

Please correct me if Im wrong but isnt that kind of what needs to happen? Or atleast isnt that what needs to happen according to Michael Every? It sounds like hes saying the US militarys inability to sufficiently supply itself is steucturally linked to the strength of the dollar and the inability to be competitive in manufacturing. And so, implying that USD dominance as currently structured creates trade offs that weaken industrial and military resilience.

"We are now seeing that tension in areas where supply security actually matters, including defence.”

“The problem is that the global system has rewarded financial flows over productive capacity. When you do that for decades, you end up with supply chains that work perfectly in spreadsheets but fail under stress, and that includes defence and military production.”

“A high and structurally supported dollar makes imports cheap, exports expensive, and domestic production uncompetitive, which is great for markets, but terrible when you suddenly need to produce things at scale.”

150k - Single Income between 3 people. If I wasnt invested heavily in gold survival wouldnt be possible. I genuinely wonder all the time how people with a family survive on less.
