How I Lost my Home

How I lost my home: 3 stories
Think it can't happen to you? Consider these tales from real people who faced serious problems -- job loss, illness, divorce -- that turned their lives upside down.

Everybody knows about the American dream of home ownership, but what about the flip side: the nightmare of losing your home?

It's not something that happens only to someone else. Toss into an average life some devastating medical bills, a sudden job loss, an overambitious home purchase or rising interest rates, and pretty soon a house that took years of toil to purchase is auctioned away in seconds.

Put landlords out of business creating more home ownership to create higher property tax revenue.While doing this the city council makes their racest neighborhood groups happy and get re-elected.Using code enforcement to rid neighborhoods of low income/landlords is illegal.Then the city justifies it by taking large sums of money from the federal government to build their housing 5,000 to house these low income minorities.The city has torn the fabric of these low income minority neighborhoods and forced them into 4-5 story buildings.Some say easy to police but I say discrimination.The city has taken away the rights of neighborhood living that is offered to the middle class.

ST.PAUL city council,mayor and other officials you know what you did and are doing and it is all going to come out soon for the country to see.

Reading the story about this couple, this is happening every day.
When people get married now days,
I DO.
It dose not mean what it did,
100 years ago.
I DO intend to get everything out of the marriage I can, HE or SHE says now days.
Where is the love.
First start with the "Creator" " GOD " or what ever you call "It".
If you don't love the Creator, you are a empty vessel.
Love "IT" First, and love your partner for ever.
Thank You for this blog Bobby.

I lost my house in a divorce many years ago, and let me tell you, a person NEVER forgets that. I don't think you ever completely heal from it. I can't imagine the grief that is caused to people by the city running them out of their homes for some of the rediculous things I have read here.

The grief that is caused by the government is rediculous and
unbearable to us.

Some people tell others that they just imagined the city running them out of their homes.

Thank you for writing and saying what you did. You statements have validated my feelings when I felt very different for feeling that way. I thought I should have gotten over it by now, but I haven't. It still hurts even though I have another house now. I would have never written that if I could not do it anonymously and now I am so glad I did.

Bob --
His Blog makes it possible, to be Anonymous and not fear any discriminators will pick on you.
When I lost my home on 9-11-2001, everything I owned was still in the home.
They hauled it away and put all my cars and boat and camper, in storage.
They held a auction, and sold it all for $ 10.00 that was ten bucks.
Can you imagine losing everything inside your house and out, and some one bought your who life for
10 bucks.
You cant replace all the pictures.

Why don't you get on the bandwagon and start protesting what's going on now instead of what happened to you years ago? All your doing is diluting and taking away from whatever changes the property rights movement can make now. There's something more important going on now than what happened to you 12 years ago.

Last week - This week --12 years ago, its all the same.
The crooks in power then was Dave Thune and he is in again.
I should not have lost anything,.
But if WE have CROOKS in POWER now and then, that is the hole idea.
STOP THEM ALL.
How can you get a fair days in court, if the JUDGES are Crooks?
You tell me.

This blog came about concerning the modern day version of a much worse type of corruption than what you keep haarping about over and over again Bill. I am sure people agree with you, but why don't you join the21st century and add something constructiive to the arugment. St. Paul has been doing this crap for 30 years and now that someone finally had the nerve to stand up to them with these lawsuits, maybe these people will be able to force a change in the way the city does business with its citizens. You and Sharon want to come here and steal the thunder from the efforts a lot of people who have worked hard to get this blog where it is today to just bring attention to your years old selfish agenda, and people are sick and tired of it. If you have a grudge against the city and want revenge or to see change or whatever, join the people that are working hard to do that and offer something constructive. They ARE NOT going to join you. Your website tells your story, and I think you would be a lot more effective making a modern day post about the current subject going on and just having a link to your story attached at the bottom.

There still is a number of us that really care about somebody's grudge match with government.
We all need a little compassion in life.
Stay witty and strong in this new year
