#BenJennings on the #UK’s #mortgage crisis – #cartoon | Opinion | The Guardian

There is something fundamentally wrong about landlords asking for money to pay off a mortgage. That means they don't actually own the property and so any rental payment towards the mortgage by a tenant must be seen in law as part payment of the mortgage and hence the tenant earns the a fraction of the property. I'm not an economist nor a lawmaker and so I don't know what the technical issues are but the morality of it is surely better than the current situation.

building a log cabin the LHBA way

Log Home Builders Association ( #LHBA) teaches you how to use #logs that almost all other #builders would reject. Here's my buddy pulling some logs out of a pile I had my neighbor make while clearing his driveway. My friend is going to build a 20x20 #hunting #cabin on his property with them. The excavator operator THANKED ME for saving him the money he would have to spend to dump these logs at the #landfill. You can see my cabin in the background - I got my logs the same way (well - I had to cut them myself, but still....)

You see all the #doom and #gloom on the news - what with #covid, #vaccine #mandates, threats of #unemployment, a #devaluing #dollar, #instability in the world, #evil #bankers pushing for a new world order #NWO, and you wonder what you can do about it. Getting out of #debt is a great way to #StickItToTheMan. #Building a #home with no #mortgage is a great way to stay out of #debt.
