Check out these two  articles in today's Tribune and Sun Times. 

‘There’s more supply available.’”The Greeley Tribune in Colorado.

From the Star Tribune article: "Under the proposed rule, landlords can’t deny an applicant on the basis of a misdemeanor if the conviction is older than three years and felonies seven years or older, and in certain cases of arson, assault or robbery, convictions more than 10 years old.

It's terrifying when senior officials do "untransparent" deals...whether it's financing off-shore drilling or awarding defense contracts to companies the officials' have large stakes in, it's all very scary...It's sad when the American people have to question the motivations of our administrations...for example, whether things like energy policies and wars are kicked off simply for the pursuit of personal gain by politicians.And dirty politicians should be punished to the fullest extent of the law, whether that be impeachment or even war crimes tribunals...

It is very hard to establish at tribunal that the damage was done intentionally with malice and not just out of stupidity: case example; tenant brought motorbike into living room to change oil and severly damaged/stained carpet - judge ruled tenant had not set out intentionally to cause damage to the carpet -so this was not covered on the other hand, different tenant caused offensive graffitti to internal walls -this was ruled to have been done intentionally with malice -so covered However, this policy comes into its own mainly for rent default, of varrying amounts depending on the circumstances but in some cases upto 12weeks if the tenant does a runner.

I sent this letter to Tim Waltz (MN Governor) and to Star Tribune on Monday, because I'm fed up with what these bureaucrats do, but NOBODY has responded yet.

The problem here is like most places is that the tribunal and courts are not operating and everything is delayed.
