While we are still the wealthiest country in the world, I think we are handicapping ourselves by spending such a big portion of our resources in totally wasteful things.For all of these reasons, and some others as well, I am generally pessimistic about the long-term prospects for the economy.

Goes like this…We have one long building approx 3300 sq ft. with a couple of waiting rooms, ex doctor offices, remember, a nurses station, a coffee break room, several bathrooms, including a handicap one, a large phone and file room, and about 5 or 6 nice office spaces and about a dozen of what were once examination rooms, about 150 sq. ft. ea.

It is this, always to regard as mere impertinences of fate the handicaps which were placed upon my life almost at the beginning.

I dislike them even more than I dislike healthy people who park in the handicapped parking.If someone has a "dangerous" dog that they claim is a service animal, and they are willing to sign my contract, then I would have to get a letter from my insurance company stating that they would extend liability over the service animal.

We had a discussion on pets as as "required" for the mentally handicapped.

You can get your senator's contact information here: http://www.senate.gov/general/contact_information/senators_cfm.cfm> > As always in cases like this, you have an automatic handicap to overcome-the fact that you are a real estate investor and are therefore viewed as part of the problem.

Straight from HUD's web site:Title VIII of the Civil Rights Act of 1968 (Fair Housing Act), as amended, prohibits discrimination in the sale, rental, and financing of dwellings, and in other housing-related transactions, based on race, color, national origin, religion, sex, familial status (including children under the age of 18 living with parents or legal custodians, pregnant women, and people securing custody of children under the age of 18), and handicap (disability).There may be additional protected classes at a state or local level.

I'm not sure how to go about collecting or if it is even going to be worth my while since he's handicapped and retired.

You many not discriminate based on race, origin, religious beliefs, gender, handicap, etc.
