Of course design is important, size of hallways, parking, green, doorways, outdoor space, balcony, lighting, direction, window size, colors.

Original question, why do cities become landlords. Cities gave rules so deep for contractors but all city built properties fail in cultural ways and government has money to burn ( see football stadiums). WTF

Seems to be locations privide more than their share of crime suspects, drug users and education shortfalls. That is not to say that many do not succeed, but a higher percentage of failure. I am surprised that a political party cannot be honest enough to face this. Often these locales have their own cultures, which do not run parallel to much of the rest of the city. They also seems to take an increasing percentage of municipal and state/ provincial budgets. No government should be a landlord. It is unsustainable.

After reading about our new budget jn Canada, I was brought to refect about the promise for new public housing. I know that many many cities in Canada and US have public housing. When did this start? Why does government want to own housing? Obviously a left agenda, but does it work. Every effort in this regard seems to eventually end up to be impoverished neighborhoods, crime ridden, run terribly by a public organization, policing problems and safety issues. Even right mayor's accept this phenomenon. This never seems to be an election issue on the right yet the dollars are poorly spent. Any comments?

It is time Ukraine was given weapons that would strike inside Russia. Time for Moscow to feel pain. Russian citizens are cowardly and need a reason to make a decision. Either fight a war or Zelensky should resign and allow communists to run Ukraine. Limited wars do not work for anyone. Need I create the list. Time for sanctions to include no international travel for any Russian citizen. Time to deport any Russian visitors. Time to arrest Putin family members outside Russia. Time to arrest Oligarchy members, not just their money. We are watching genocide. There is no fight for territory. There is just genocide. I have a few friends who are Russian heritage. They are very quiet. I have friends who are Ukrainian heritage, they cry, they are angry, they send money, they apply to take in relatives. The time is here I think. Putin is no genius. Hitler was no genius. Putin just hates like Hitler did. History will show it, but that does not stop this. Wow, no wonder politicians cannot agree with logic like this. I am not sure I have ever seen a more extreme position. Putin and Hitler = no Obamacare...wholly crapola.

Hmmmm...love the thought...but what about the two utes.? 😁

I am inclined to believe you B...far sooner than I could believe 1 word from carlson.

The Kremlin has added that elimination of people who claim they are Ukrainian is essential because they are traitors to Russia. Thus random civilian killings is justified. So exactly when does the west try to step in and stop the killing. Do we allow another 6million to die? This is so sad. Armenians genocide. Jewish genocide, now Ukrainian...this world is so hateful. And by observation...the Pope is silent yet most Ukrainians are Christians. We still allow Russians to travel, why? Russia should be totally isolated. We must at least supply the Ukraines weapons to get into a real war, not just defend. Thanks for allowing a rant.

Bury it, they help create it.

But the money wheel keeps changing, do you pay cb or both players at safety? We are paying lb/de next yr so what gives. Great safety tandems are highly regarded, and when superior make cbs look good, but when they slow or become injury problems they can be a financial liability.

Every free nation in the world benefits.

Having saw at least part of the recent spree of award shows, it appears to me that the extreme left does not believe in wars! However that alone does not make eliminate them. I am really disappointed in all genres of music. No one decent song of protest, not one attempt if an anthem of protest or support. Easy to write about hating the police, but not Putin. In past generations music led both pro and anti was. Today, music is self absorbed and blind. Kill thousands and get ignored, laugh at one bald head and headlines for weeks. Gee, the grammys actually spent 5 min, but not one song written as an anthem.

But yet he didn't, he never considered that Smith could have hit him. Where oh where is Joan Rivers when you need her. Bill Maher and Jim Carrey the only guys who have been counted.

Interesting thought. What would Denzel Washington have said if Chris Rock had been slapped by Colin Farrel. What if Smith had slapped Amy Shumur, or Wanda Sykes. What would Denzel have said if Ricky Gervais was slapped and he hit Will Smith back. What if it was a punch? The Left often has colored blinders on. In an effort to be understanding, they offend. Assault is assault, left right center. No excuse. This is the reason the dems are doomed. Hypocrisy.

In 2022, instant starter status is essential to be a top team when selecting in the draft. No more 3 years to get ready. Because of huge contracts to QB WR DE, you need the 4 or 5 years of control of a starter to survive. If the guard can start by game 6 or 8...you have to do it.

Maybe 2. We do not know about Tre yet.

You expect a spike then without expected response they disappear, depending logical and expected. It does not mean problems do not exist. How to get to a respectful situation is not easy for sure. We all have been bullied, it is a multi level problem and also character builder. But today bullying can be dangerous, not just words and a punch in the nose.

Hmmm, guess I was wrong

The trouble with all this is that anyone who has made a career of politics, especially at the level Joe B, for 40 yrs plus has to be corrupt if they have more than a few bucks in their bank account. It is impossible for people to turn down millions year after year. If Jim and Tammy Faye fell to the side of evil, anyone can. I have no doubt every long term politician made bucks from insider info, foreign investments and influence. Joe is guilty, Trump is guilty, Obama not so much, he was too dumb. Clinton wanted to and Hilary did. Kissinger, Richardson, Yada Yada. These are non stories. Only the denial and cover up is the bad thing. Ask Nixon.

Your handlers have taught you that technique, how to run and hide.

Yes! Just remove the question mark..you got it right Doc. You are right, unfortunately in this case it is true, IMHO.

Do you take pride in worshipping a Russian operative?

IMAGINE ALL THE PEOPLE LIVING LIFE IN PEACE. YOU MAY SAY I AM A DREAMER, BUT I AM NOT THE ONLY ONE.

Good teams historically picked best player available as they had a great roster. Today great teams pick to fill a spot for immediate impact. I think the causes are 1) huge portion of cap spent on a few players, 2) a great team must have strong impact from rookie salary cap to be great. So the Bills must pick to fill biggest weakness at draft time. Depending on FA pick up it will be cb or oline. No other option. All other picks would be wasting on the field playing time next year...a Superbowl year. The future does not matter...they are playing for the ultimate NOW.

The ultimate mercenary, but he gets the money. Now we shall see his character when he gets shutout in games
