Whereas: The continued expansion of Section 8 housing in Maryland is ruining our communities; and
Whereas: Section 8 has been shown to reduce property values. This amounts to stealing people's property which they worked so hard to earn; and
Whereas: No private business should be forced to accept payment methods that they are uncomfortable with - including Section 8 vouchers; and
Whereas: It is blatant corruption for politicians to confiscate your income and redistribute it in the form of free or low-cost housing in order to secure votes from those who benefit from this scheme.
Therefore: We, the citizens of Maryland, oppose legislation to expand Section 8 housing and we demand that the Maryland General Assembly votes against it.

Section 8 trains people to be dependent on the government, People that are pro section 8 ignore our retiree's needs. They work there whole lives and are abandoned by politicians.
"their"
Section 8 allows people to live in neighborhoods that they would not normally be able to live in - due to the cost of rent and mortgage! When these people live there, they do not appreciate what they're provided with - and it deteriorates due to disrespect. I currently live in an apartment complex where too many couldn't afford to live - if it weren't for housing vouchers.
I so wish that we could kick them out for abusing what they have been given - better yet, means test and term limit their participation!
9:04 I hate people like you.
I had a friend who purchased a very expensive home in a major development outside of Baltimore in Howard County. After she purchased her home the builders announced that before the next "annex" could be started they had to commit to section 8 housing to be able to build any further. Needless to say she moved as quickly as possible and trash moved in and property values plummeted. Sad.
10:16 - maybe you need an education...proper written expression represents a good up-bringing!
Meanwhile, thanks for helping me to understand that I've done something good today - even if it resulted in pissing someone off!
I am good 10:16 my community college education is good enough for me to earn 6 figures.
Like most homeowners, I worked hard, drove an ten year old car and saved every penny I could. I did without luxuries and saved for years to put a down payment on my house. I am no different from anyone else. I was determined to own my own home and I have no patience for anyone who want me to pay their rent or grocery bill. Be responsible for your own future and those you care about.
Count them on your fingers the ones who reap the profits from building section 8 housing,you have to be politically connected to benefit.
Building and providing Section 8 housing is a subtle form of gerrymandering.
12:32 - the housing vouchers are a subtle way of forcing integration on an otherwise unwilling population!
12:32 and 12:48... same thing
