| Marxist thinking |
- Keeps the furnace running
- Paid the water bill
- Paid the electric bill
- Paid the property tax bill
- Found somebody to plow the parking lot and sidewalk and paid them
- Throws salt on the walks or hires somebody to do it
- Keeps the roof repaired so it doesn't leak
- Re-keyed the door after you broke up with your ex (again!)
- Recarpets the apartment/house every five years
- Fixes holes (lots of holes!!!) in the drywall
- Sprays the spiders
- Traps the mice that eat the spilled food that you are too lazy to sweep up
- Deals with unruly neighbors
- Replaces broken windows
- Lets you back into your apartment when you forget your key
- Keeps the smoke alarms functional (never-mind the fact that you pitch them out the window every time you bake a pie)
- Runs the Ozone Generator every time you have a party and the entire wing stinks like weed.
- If there is a pool, he hires somebody to balance the chemicals and disinfect the pool when your satan-spawn craps in it.
- Mows the grass or hires somebody to do it
- Gives you grace when your check bounces and you need another week
Am I missing anything important?
Insurance? Or in Marxist "thinking" that isn't a renter's problem (like most of what you've listed).

Most current "Marxists" are not thinking folks. Thier FEEEELINGS are All Important thus calm discussions with mere Facts isn't worth the effort.
"Emotion" is our native operating-system.
DeleteLogical/rational is an inefficient, non-native app but the benefits outweigh the inefficiencies.
People who are too lazy or are incapable of functioning in the logical/rational emulation mode demand that everybody accept the lie that the two systems are interchangeable and of equal value even though there is a gross over-supply of "feelers" and excess demand for "logical/rational".
Thanks for reminding me of most of the reasons why I got out of the rental business. Along with others like stealing appliances and even carpeting and cabinets and plumbing and electrical fixtures. ---ken
ReplyDelete😊 not a fan of Marxism.
ReplyDeleteI think you hit some good points.
Cost me over $10000 to 'fix' things after the last renter screwed up my Condo... Sold it at a loss just to NOT have to screw with it again. And yes, I supposedly 'had' a management company that cost $200/mo to take care of the place.
ReplyDeleteYour story is why we never considered renting our house when we left California. Not just because I never want to give those b***ds another dime.
