Capitalists always expect you to socialize their losses. Via WSMV4:
NASHVILLE, Tenn. (WSMV/Gray News) - People already struggling to make ends meet are being hit with a double whammy: Their former apartment manager is accused of stealing their rent payments.
Now, their former property manager, Casey Oiler, is under investigation. Oiler is accused of taking those payments, and it isn’t just in Manchester. WSMV 4 Investigates has confirmed that Oiler has also been charged in Warren County, and is under investigation for stealing rent payments in Decherd.
The Jackson, Tennessee-based company recently admitted in a letter to tenants that it isn’t their fault their rent payments are stolen. However, the company still wants residents to pay up again.
This is low-income rural housing, subsidized by the USDA.
Making Wilear angrier was the letter that Volunteer Management sent to tenants last month. In it, the company told renters that they have until the end of the year to repay what the company admits was stolen.
A portion of the letter reads, “I understand this is difficult times, and this was not your fault, but this is the way Corporate and our lawyers want to handle this.”
“This is a low-income housing,” Wilear said. “I work at Walmart, you know? I don’t make a ton of money.”
This is B.S. on so many levels. This company didn't have insurance bonds on their property managers? Because if they did, they'll get the money back. And if they didn't? Well, tough luck! That's how capitalism works!
Those poor people need a lawyer.
