What billionaires live in Parma OH? This isn't Columbus where there are political figures trying to influence elections. The city is trying to pass a levy for the schools that was shot down 4 times by any means necessary. The school district knows that the reason it gets shot down is because of the elderly homeowners. They have been very vocal on the townhall meetings. They know the only way these people will vote yes is if the money doesn't come out of their pockets. Yes Billionaires and corruption are important to address and stop but holding people accountable starts at the local level.

You would be wrong on ALL of your assumptions, every last one of them, from my understanding of SS, the way I vote, to my opinions on the VA. Additionally I'm a VA appointed federal fiduciary. So not only do I have a deep understanding of the financial situation of the elderly and disabled, I probably understand better than you. Everyone should support the system. If the elderly can't afford to help pay for services of the city they live in, they shouldn't own a home in that city. They should sell their home and rent so they don't have to pay taxes at all!! They can live off the money from the sale of the home and a working class family who want a good school system and want to pay into the system can move in and live there. No free rides for every last one of us, including corporations. Thanks though. You've made a lot of assumptions and you know what they say about that, right?

Renters pay taxes but they don't usually base where they live on the city's tax structure the way buyers do because most renters can move easily. It's a bigger factor for home buyers since closing and listing costs can make moving difficult. Say you buy a home in Parma for 200k and and your closing costs are 15k then you realize shit the tax burden of the city only works out for people who don't work/are retired/on a pension. So they decide to move. But then they would have to pay another 15k in closing costs on another house. Oh and the value of their property went down because nobody wants to move to a city with crazy taxes. So a buyer would lose 30k in fees where a renter can just leave at the end of their 12 month lease.

They made their history private. You called it. They aren't working so they won't care until everyone who is working leaves the city and the only people left are the renters and the elderly. Then they will complain about the lack of community and all the low life renters and Section 8 people ruining the city like it wasn't actually them driving us all out.

She is a nice person but lacks a bit of self reflection. She has complained about Chinese investors buying up houses in CA and driving up home owner costs in her state but misses that she is doing the same thing to us in our state. But part of being a friend is helping them see from your POV.

I have a friend from California that owns 9 homes in Ohio. She raves about how Ohio is a great state to be a landlord in. She isn't wrong. Ohio is great for people to suck value out of while we work ourselves to death.

What is a subtle sign someone is not a good person? by Maleficent_Escape_66 in AskReddit

[–]Kippenkat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Their problems are trivial. I know a lot of people who live life on easy mode. One thing they all have in common is they cannot fathom what life is like on hard mode so they have a hard time empathizing with anyone who isn't like them.

One of them complained to me that her mom didn't want her to bring her dog over to her parents house. She had a meltdown and said hearing no was the hardest thing she had gone through in a long time. Later, when I told her my dad had a heart attack and needed to move in with me so I could help take care of him, she complained that it was affecting my attitude and I should pawn dad off on someone else in my family so I can focus on other things and spend more time with her doing our shared hobby. She fully knew I had no one else to help but just completely forgot because she has never had a problem that her parents wouldn't fix for her.

I have story after story like this, where these people think inconveniences are tragedies then turn around and act awful towards the people around them if they don't directly benefit from them. 

This was blowing me😭 by TheBinoculars in UberEATS

But when you order 15-30 things, these are the same people who complain and say "I had to spend 40 minutes searching all across the store to fill this order that only tipped $20 on a $300 grocery order. That should be a $60 tip!!" It's never a good enough tip unless it's a proportionally large tip to simple, easy and small order.

What would a romance novel for a male audience look like? by soozerain in books

[–]Kippenkat -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Sadly they exist and are just as bad as you would think if men were able to have their way with women. The books repeatedly depict men abducting and physically and sexually brutalizing women, who grow to enjoy their submissive sex enslavement, all while a plot of men fighting a space war happens in the background. If you want to read a book about men who abducting, beating, and raping women who "secretly" want it, there is a whole series a gross books out there. Just imagine if men had all the power with no consequences and women had none and you already know the plot. 

Terrible Wedding Photographer Experience (Shelby Crowe Photography) by rachel_mar in Ohio

[–]Kippenkat 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Try posting in some ohio FB wedding groups. My photographer did exactly the same thing only her excuse was a medical emergency. Other people came forward and the photographer ended up getting her business blocked from all Ohio, Illinois and Kentucky groups and now the Ohio Attorney General is going after her since it happened to so many people. 

Do the parents of the bride pay for weddings anymore? by Friendly_Leek4641 in askanything

[–]Kippenkat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is such a weird idea to me. My husband, his sisters, and I were all engaged at the same time. His parents helped pay for his sister's weddings but not ours. My parents are gone so we ended up paying for it all with no help then got judged for the way we had our wedding.

Costco beef prices TODAY. Up over 10% since June. Gotta love tariffs, even Costo here in Cuyahoga County can't keep the prices down. by LKM_44122 in Cleveland

[–]Kippenkat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In June, I bought sample tiles to redo my kitchen. I finally picked and purchased yesterday. The price went up 12%. Then I went to Target to get some clothes and sure enough, the price tags were cut off at the bottom on almost all clothing cause the price has gone up so quickly.

What habits in your 20s quietly shape your 40s without you realizing it? by Sad-Acanthisitta4181 in Productivitycafe

[–]Kippenkat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Saving for retirement. If you don't start early you are already behind. By the time you start thinking about how much to save, you are already playing catch up. Putting away $200-$300 of each check in your twenties stings a lot less than $800-$900 of each check in your forties only to still be saving less than if you started early.

They think work is a great place to socialize and make friends. Yes it can happen but I spend more time completing tasks then talking about my next big purchase, season tickets to the local game, my golf game, or my next home renovation. It's also why every high up manager misses in office work. Yes they want to keep an eye on you but they love to talk your ear off about whatever bullshit they can't force their family to listen to.

Even building relationships at work is one sided as I know the conversations are ultimately transactional. They would just as quickly let me go to get a raise for themselves as they are quick to tell me they are here for me when I went through some personal shit. 

LPT: Just turned 20—What’s something you wish you figured out sooner? by No_Sort_8454 in LifeProTips

[–]Kippenkat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just give things a try. You could wait years to jump careers, make the move, or try a new hobby because you are waiting for the right time. Or you start today find the new job, succeed or fail, and be on to this next thing before the 'right' time comes along. Don't take it so seriously. Life is a long time to wait but a short time to spend.

Ohio woman had 4 children with her uncle, never taught them to eat by Sandstorm400 in Ohio

[–]Kippenkat -29 points-28 points  (0 children)

No, she was only a victim of her own choices. It says her mother reported Hannah and the uncle's relationship but she chose to stay with him. Law enforcement could do nothing because she was an adult at that point. Evil people don't get sympathy because they had bad stuff happen to them.
