This goes for handguns, hunting rifles, or F-16 fighter jets.

Well I see you Jim as a street fighter so will be interesting to see how this all unfolds.. 

In my opinion everyone's time would be better spent reading "The Book on Real Estate Investing", visiting the Financial Samurai or Nerd Wallet, or equivalent blogs, or any rags to riches biography. 

We're too busy spending billions on aircraft carrier groups and the next sexy line of fighter jets.

. - Given the tenant seems to be a fighter, I would be very careful with what you say to her....

Our bombers kept getting shot down by German fighter planes. 

Tenant 2 might be more of a fighter, and you may need to reassure that tenant that they won't have an eviction on their report if they leave quietly.They'll both need the deposit money and getting it in cash really helps them.  

Undoubtably in my mind, the goon't will have to make some tough decision, unpopular ones such as bailing out the airlines and other leisure conglomerates such as Hilton Global - reminiscence of the '08/'09 bailout of Wall Street, though different to some extent as the airline / hotel type of "blue chip" stocks are majority owned by Fidelity and Blackrocks of the world, which in turn is own by major pension funds, and guess who's the largest holders or contributors of pensions funds, your everyday teachers, fire fighters, police officers and etc., so I would imagine the govern't won't have much of choice... 

Some are great but a lot of people are drawn to pit bulls because they are such effective fighters / guard dogs, not because they are great loyal dogs.

If you wanted to fly airplanes, you might decide if you like the idea of flying fighter jets or jumbo jets.
