Ask Not What Your Landlord Can Do For You π ββοΈ βAsk How We Build a Land of Owners π πΊπΈ
By Peeved Pope John 35 (π»πΊπΈ Still Irish, Eternally Handsome)
My fellow Americans πΊπΈβ
Weβve lived too long in a tribute economy πΈ. Too long handing over sacks of rent like peasants at the castle gates π°.
But we are not here to bow. We are here to build. π οΈ
Not a land of renters. Not a land of serfs. But a land of owners. π β¨
The Vision π
Imagine an America where:
Every family can buy a starter home as easily as a car π.
Keys π are as common as pay stubs π΅.
Ownership isnβt a privilege for the few, but the standard for the many π¨βπ©βπ§βπ¦.
No more βtemporary guestβ visas ποΈ for renters.
No more American Lease π.
We deserve The American Deed π.
The Numbers Give Us Urgency π’
π° Americans spend $660 billion a year on rent β money that could be building equity π instead of castles for landlords π.
π First-time buyers are at their lowest share in decades β a generation fenced out by design π«.
But hereβs the hope π:
Every policy, every reform, every brick laid toward affordable homes brings us closer to a republic of owners ποΈ.
How We Build It π οΈ
We can make this real:
ποΈ Build millions of starter homes again.
π¦ Give families first chance at homes before Wall Street.
πͺ Tear down zoning walls that lock ordinary people out.
π³ Simplify buying a home until itβs as easy as buying a Honda Civic.
This isnβt a fantasy. Itβs a choice. A policy choice. A citizenship choice.
Ask Notβ¦ π€
So I say to you today:
Ask not what your landlord can do for you π ββοΈ β ask how we will build a Land of Owners π πΊπΈ.
For when citizens hold keys π, we hold power β‘.
When families own homes π‘, they own futures π .
And when America is a land of owners, it is a land of true citizens π½.
