Q: ¨How long has the US Gov´t been failing to solve this problem of ¨affordable housing¨ for its lowliest wage slaves?

A: Hint is ¨less than 80 years¨ -- @simonthecat is almost double/triple that in cat years!.

The Realtor cartel was established during the same timeframe of the ¨expansion¨ described in the infographics below.

The history of the NAR is basically... attempts by white dudes to FUND other white dudes as they ¨brazenly¨ pushed further and further west on Native Land, murdering people ... extracting resources ... leaving sickness, death, and destruction in their wake.

ALL colonial cities across the west have the same general footprint ... colonization, churches, crutches.

They don´t want you to remember is native land! No, they want you to forget that the government of the ¨United States¨ MURDERED THE BUFFALO TO STARVE THE INDIAN. Is much easier to distract the poor with a game of CANDYCRUSH or something else as useless.

Familiar with both the ¨poor farmer¨ and the ¨poor landlord¨ stories, eh?

IT IS NOT THE JOB OF WORKING PEOPLE TO BAIL OUT LANDLORDS. The trillions of dollars the gov´t wants to spend to help out the ¨landlords¨... it WILL be raped from the land. Colonial history shows us is the precedent we should expect. But probably, the earth cannot take another trillion dollars of rape, even by the most well-intentioned wannabe investors.

"From the beginning of European control there has been an unrelenting drive to commit genocide over another culture. The American Indians were a majority so the Europeans called them an enemy. One of the major facts the United States Government has failed to understand is that the spiritual aspect of life is inseparable from the economic and the political aspects.

American Indians felt comfortable with the environment, close to the moods and rhythms of nature, in time with the living planet. Europeans were quite different, viewing the earth itself as lifeless and inorganic, subject to any kind of manipulation or alteration. Europeans tended to be alienated from nature and came to the New World to use the wilderness, to conquer and exploit its natural wealth for private gain.

American Indians’ agricultural and medical wisdom had been ignored by the European invaders. In their rush to control the land and people much has passed them by and much has been destroyed."

Land acknowledgements, and to honor the #MMIWG by listening to one of the survivors.

"During the American period, Indian female children were sold for $200 pursuant to state indenture laws, while Indian adults were hunted as bounties. The militias were paid 50 cents to $5 per scalp.

In 1860, the California government spent $1.6 million on the hunting of Native Peoples. This would equate to $46,400,000 today. When white men would bring in a scalp, it would drip with blood in order for them to trade for their money. Hence the term redskin, which is the name of Washington, DC’s football team. This term embodies genocide of Native American people, yet the capital city of our country wears it proudly.

The history of California is gruesome and cruel, yet Native American people were able to endure multiple waves of genocide while still cultivating their connection to culture. Native American Peoples’ existence today is resistance in itself.

We were not expected to survive 300 massacres in California and many more across the country. We were told to kill the Indian and save the man by suppressing our ceremonial practices, stories, and languages.

Today we stand stronger than ever as we initiate the movement from symbolism to reality. The history of my ancestors must be respected and learned, because in order to respect the Earth, we must respect Indigenous Peoples.

This history is not a plot for the next blockbuster movie."

Facebook has pretty much always had that attitude. Don't do brand management on Facebook is my advice. Why pay _any_ form of currency to have your work and messages censored by a greedy and selfish algorithm? Let's define Facebook's "greedy and selfish" algorithm as such: You discover and share unpleasant facts about a company. You urge your "network" to boycott or cease patronizing company.

Facebook instead decides to censor and vaporizes your message because it doesn't want to promote _anything_ that it can't extort.

Here it sounds like the "extortion currency" is going to be this supposed cryptocurrency debut. It also is probably intended to further confuse people.
