Another company. Another similar announcement. This is beyond egregious. Front line workers - the ones making the company money- get the shaft yet again all the while a CEO gets a golden parachute likely filled with beneficial tax loopholes to pocket the most cash.

Instead of working to lower actual housing costs in the long run and providing wealth through equity of home ownership, let's lock folks into mortgages they'll never pay off before retirement-- in the end the banks will win.

This is not good. Short-sided 100%.

If you live in California:
• make sure you are registered to vote
• ignore the polling
• vote
• make sure everyone you know votes for this measure

Yes it looks like it will pass, but there are no guarantees until folks actually vote for this measure. We cannot have folks sit out this election.

The top three things Jesus was on about were feeding the hungry, healing the sick, and welcoming the stranger. Rich men have convinced so-called Christians to starve the hungry, gut health care, and deport the stranger to enrich themselves. It’s astoundingly anti-Christ.
