Yep! - They conveniently forget to omit the fact that the majority of the building were on there last legs and only lady luck was keeping them upright! As these buildings are owned by the the "poor" folks no standards enforced, no one gives a dam, while the "Elites" are off course well taken care off. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
