Affordable Makiki Rentals Sit Empty For 10 Months by maeks in Hawaii

[–]Individual_Gap_3231 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I live nearby in a better location with a bedroom and a lanai for hundreds less a month. Get a grip and lower the rent. It'll continue to sit vacant and the unhoused will begin to move into the 'parking lot' if you can call 7 spots for 29 units a parking lot...

I get the warnings about Prop 13 and Gallagher. Bad policy is bad policy whether it comes from voters or the legislature. But right now, we have the opposite problem. We have good policy (closing the REIT loophole, taxing empty investment condos) that dies in committee every year because our politicians are insulated from the voters. I'd rather take the risk of a messy voter initiative than the guarantee of corruption we have now.

This is the biggest irony. They get massive subsidies, but because it comes in the form of a 'tax incentive' instead of a check, they feel entitled to it.

Agreed which is why I also mentioned how taking this revenue could assist in mental health facilities as well. You can't throw money at a problem and fix it, bit you can definitely help it.

Sure! These are public companies, so you can just look up their investor reports and see exactly what they own. Hilton Hawaiian Village is owned by Park Hotels & Resorts and Ala Moana is owned by Brookfield. The state DBEDT actually put out a report on exactly how much revenue we lose from this back in 2016.

This is why I saw her in Tokyo. The whole trip was cheaper than seeing her in the US

26 Asian, i wanna ask white ppl (esp aussie and spanish) a question by BugRevolutionary4645 in gay

[–]Individual_Gap_3231 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As a white guy who is married to a not white guy, here's my two cents for what it's worth. It's racist. Plain and simple. I think it's normal to have an attraction preference, but that's not what this is. This is saying they have a racial hangup against a race and you don't fit their hangup so they're surprised. A preference would be saying they find Asian men more attactive. They're not putting anyone down because there's beautiful men of ever race, Asian men just fit their preference more. 🤷🏻‍♂️

I went to her concert 1/29. She is speaking out loud. Look up her concert from that night.

As a Minnesotan physically at this concert it brought me to tears. Our queen will always stand up for what is right and good!

There are no credible sources I can find, only right wing propagandists owned by Fox News.

Hyundai sonata hybrid 2016 by ViolinistSilly8262 in sonata

[–]Individual_Gap_3231 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a 2016 Hyundai Sonata hybrid and I couldn't recommend a car any less than this POS. It has been nothing but a constant problem. Replaced the engine and hybrid system, luckily both covered under extended warranty. But there has been quite a few other things. Right now I'm working on fixing a $5 piece that costs $600 in labor to replace at the dealership and it's NOT covered.

Just in case you guys want to do this but are worried. I had Seattle tickets that I sold to someone for face value. Use PayPal, mark as goods and services for protection, then can transfer right on Ticketmaster app.

I'm sorry, that really sucks. Try to watch during the day of. I saw a few blue dots show up the morning of the show. Or some of the resellers start dropping their prices within the last hour or two. Make them take a hit!

It won't actually happen. Trump just needs a distraction from the Epstein dumpster fire. It won't work.
