Baltimore and Detroit have obvious examples but this has happened to families from coast to coast. And then there’s “financial losers” (his words) like me who didn’t make it over the bump into homeownership and have been pushed around by gentrification.

With conservatives it’s never any random good fortune or bad fortune. You either “busted your ass” or you didn’t.

America has Democrats who are far right and Republicans who ultra far right.

He's probably only switched to neoliberalism cause he moved to California.

You really take the small things for granted until they're gone. Like a simple music player included with an Android phone. My phone died last night, so I got a new one and the only default player included was Google Play. **** Google Play. It sucks. All my tunes are separated into folders on a sim card, and gOoGLe plAy doEsnT reCogNizE fOldErS. Piece of ****.

...but helllooo Power Amp.

The music player on your phone is not a “small thing”

That’s like saying viagra pills are small. Not if your dick don’t work right without it...

I repeat, it's not my fault my home value increased. I'm grateful. But I did bust my ass to get to the point where I could uproot my family from a **** hole area back east to a place of better opportunity. You gonna crap on me for that too?

I'm getting kind of tired of all of the slagging. Hawk's on ignore. But can some of you guys just ****ing lay off for a while?

Didn't know April was kick the **** out of Chula at every turn month.

Gonna take a little break from this place. It's not at all fun anymore.

You never upgraded any part of it? Replaced a doorknob? Added a plant to your yard? Changed your flooring?

If you had your home reappraised so that you could put it on the market for more than you bought it for, then you are literally responsible for your home's value increasing unless someone else paid for the appraisal.

To be fair I didn't slag you off. Just said you sounded like a Tory, and you did with that post.

'You are just bitter at folk like me who have done well for themselves that's why you want house prices to come down' is textbook Tory. It's exactly the thing one would say.

I have a feeling that Chula's still on the Tobasco.
