Re: Filthy Tenant and Landlord responsibilities by very angry tenant (ohio) on March 9, 2013 @02:19

i am absolutely appalled by what ive seen on this website.Contrary to your belief not all section 8 tenants are bad.i myself am a section 8 tenant and i keep my home in almost perfect condition.i scrub my tile floors,vacuum everyday,shampoo once a month,and my rent is always on time.and its not just welfare moms that recieve section 8.section 8 was created for those who need help getting on there feet.i myself dont plan on living on section 8 for life.i plan on owning my own home someday but i am seriously disgusted by the way you are talking about people.yes there are alot of section 8 tenants who are complete garbage but to combine all of us into the same catagory is ridiculous.and although i try to be a perfect tenant i have a slumlord who doesnt do anything yet i still pay my rent on time every month..he didnt put the storm windows in properly,sink drain was to small for the hole it went in,my toilet was so disgusting when i moved in i had to use at least 7 gallons of bleach to get only most of it off,the carpets are frayed at the doorways from the previous tenants dog chewing the carpets,and theres more where that comes from.yet i try not to complain.i work hard for everything i get and i need a little help so that classifies me as a welfare mom??and my parents did not have section 8 they worked hard everyday of there lives to support me and my siblings without any help.so before u judge people by there financial status how bout u ask'how did i get where i am today?cuz im pretty sure u had some help along the way.
