The presumptive Republican nominee, though, may have some wiggle room in explaining why he couldn't immediately provide an answer when asked by Politico how many houses he and his wife, Cindy, own. Sen. McCain himself does not own any of the properties. They're all owned by Cindy McCain, her dependent children and the trusts and companies they control.

Gotta love Socialism. A buddy of mine here in NY owns some apartments. One of his tenants qualifies for state assistance. A woman and her son. Something like 90% of her rent is paid for by the State. She pays like a 100 bucks to my friend, the State picks up the rest. When he applied for this program he asked the manager of the program how long she could stay on assistance. "As long as she doesn't make over a certain amount, she could stay on indefinately...". Wow.
So in other words, there's no incentive to improve your situation or get a better job.
What a sham.

Yeah, particularly since the families in question just stay in that situation most times, while your buddy is the one actually collecting all of our tax dollars.
Not to mention all the slick tax breaks he gets for renting to those tenants, or the inflated rent he's able to charge.
It's predatory and criminal.

... Deus, - what does your friend DO all day?
Drool spittle on his chin ?
If an immagrent with limited English skills can make ends meet, and buy a house, anyone can.
She has a girlfriend who works in a Chinese restaurant, - she saved her cash under her mattress for years, and this month she just payed for a really nice condo ...
... in CASH !
She's a waitress, in a Chinese restaurant, and she choose not to live onthe dool, - she worked, she saved, she got ahead.
I have no sympathy for someone who's stratagey in life is to NOT WORK, because it's THE BEST HE CAN DO.
