You're getting a budget when you're being drained by people that are stealing from the situation.

I went to Commissioner Park and others on the situations because I helped found restoration with Robert Kennedy and I'm involved with trying to deal with different tenants.

And I find that the On the succession rights and everything else, when they go to get the HUD monies to pay these type of things, instead of charging the rents.

Because when you have a Section 8 apartment and you're on a succession or rent control, you cannot charge market value.

They're charging market value.

We need a system like the IRS has of a whistleblower system, or else we have to go to Doge and Donald Trump and all these crazies.
