yes - we should cut there. We should also eliminate the federal mandate
that requires many of these lanlords to reserve a percentage of their
total space for low income/welfare receipients. I know of very few
lanlords that think they make enough money between the 1/4 welfare
check and the HUD section 8 checks (or Social Security equivalents) that
they wouldn't forego the pleasure of reserving this space. There are
certainly slum lords who might be upset at the loss of revenue, but I
don't particularly care about them (do you?).
