Six million Americans currently have no place to call home, as affordable low-cost housing continues to waste away in a silent, even hostile political climate. In recent years around 1.5 million units of housing have disappeared -- which means millions of children growing up homeless or in housing that is substandard and potentially hazardous.

Randy Shaw, director of Housing America, a San Francisco-based housing rights organization, reported in In These Times that America's housing situation is dire and only getting worse. Shaw reports that the silence that surrounds the issue in both the political sphere and mass media is confounded by the vast institutional problems of corruption and limited budgets faced by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development. With the new downturn in the economy, this is a story that continues to unfold, and continues to get little notice in the mainstream press.

Strangers usually won't violate your boundaries the way people you know (friends, significant other, parents, etc.) will. That could be the alternative between living with your boyfriend and moving to the midwest.

> ***My current landlord IS a stranger. HE's the one who thinks we're more than that. NOT ME.
> I am also sick of looking at my own posts. I am really sick of looking at them.

> I am just going to pack up my bags and look for someplace else, in a different county, but close to work.

> Just next time, I mean, this time, I will find another FIVE landlord, the kind that knows enough to stay away, the only kind I like.

> This is the last time I will ever have a TWO for a landlord, EVER.

> Next time, I will shop for a FIVE, not 'just anyone'. Anyone know of any FIVE landlords in North Jersey?
