[quote=Anonymous]Look at the endorsements. She is another hard-left progressive of the Charles Allen, Brianne Nadeau, Robert White ilk. No meaningful positions on addressing the rising crime rates in the city except for "violence prevention programs". No private sector business experience at all (I do not count being a junior associate at a large law firm as being exposed to the reality of meeting a payroll). I just read through her naive and one-sided view on housing in the District. Apparently it has not occurred to her that part of the reason that landlords have difficulty maintaining buildings is that DC's absurdly one-sided tenant-friendly eviction and rent control laws make it difficult to (a) make enough money on older buildings in order to make needed capital and maintenance improvements and (b) evict tenants who trash apartments and create pest, mold and other issues which affect other units. I would like council people who are actually able to think through issues, instead of reacting to everything with knee-jerk bleeding heart liberalism. [/quote]
