Right.Who gives a shit if it unsolicited? Say no.unsolicited offersHerr Newsom signed some California law yesterday that will prosecute people making what the state considers “lowball” offers on destroyed land.
It seems obvious to me that the solution here is more government, to the point of dictating what price property owners can unload their land to buyers. I’m guessing Blackrock will pay premium! Nice to know the state is all-in on selling this land for property owners.
More of the “free-market” capitalism that @HHusky is always whining about, among many other things.
Governor Newsom issues order to protect fire victims from predatory real estate speculators | Governor of California
next three months
PDX is horrified and so fucking dumb
Can you explain why CA and newsome are even getting involved in this? I deserve the right to hear any offer for my land. If I don't like the deal I can say no.
Everyone loves the "free market" until their elderly parent, disabled sibling, etc. gets talked into doing something stupid.And here we go with the usual leftist bullshit
Someone could possibly be a victim so we need legislation!!!!!
Buyer beware and let the free market cook

They could have done it two weeks ago. Just like prepositioning fire trucks.

So much for DOGE then.Government can't fix anything. Just make things worse
The more Government in America the further we get from the country that could do anything
No place has more Government than California and they can't even do the basics anymore

Four years ago today, my Twitter account was instantly suspended for posting the following picture:
How it ended: New US ‘oligarchy’ threatens democracy, Biden warns in farewell speech.So I removed the tweet, under duress, to restore access to my account.
As it turned out, I was far from the only one. Anybody who shared any part of that news story — and it is a news story — got instantly locked down by Twitter. You couldn’t even share the URL of https://nypost.com/2020/10/14/email-reveals-how-hunter-biden-introduced-ukrainian-biz-man-to-dad/https://nypost.com/2020/10/14/email-reveals-how-hunter-biden-introduced-ukrainian-biz-man-to-dad/https://nypost.com/2020/10/14/email-reveals-how-hunter-biden-introduced-ukrainian-biz-man-to-dad/. A complete blackout.
The Democrats wanted Trump out of the White House, and they thought this story would interfere with that. So they locked it down.
Biden’s speechwriters have to be trolling us on the way, knowing that Joe is too far gone to remind them there’s no way he can mention disinformation and social media, because everyone will bring up the mass censoring of the New York Post and anyone who mentioned Hunter’s laptop in 2020. Or as Glenn wrote last year in the aforementioned Post: Hunter’s laptop, Wuhan and more: ‘Disinformation’ and ‘conspiracies’ turn out to be true — again and again.Speaking from the Oval Office, the outgoing US President criticised social media bosses who are “giving up on fact checking” and burying Americans in an “avalanche of disinformation and misinformation”.
Mr Biden’s comments will be interpreted as a thinly veiled attack on Elon Musk and Mark Zuckerberg, the billionaire owners of X and Facebook, who have https://www.telegraph.co.uk/business/2025/01/12/elon-musk-mark-zuckerberg-team-free-speech-war-uk/
Channelling President Dwight Eisenhower, Mr Biden warned of the “potential rise of a tech industrial complex” threatening to undermine US democracy.
Mr Eisenhower, a former US army general, spoke in his 1961 farewell address about the rise of a “military-industrial complex”.
Mr Biden said: “Americans are being buried under an avalanche of misinformation and disinformation, enabling the abuse of power. The free press is crumbling. Editors are disappearing. Social media is giving up on fact checking.
“The truth is smothered by lies told for power and for profit. We must hold the social platforms accountable to protect our children, our families, and our very democracy from the abuse of power.”
It's already been answered. Per usual you are too spastic to manage.Meanwhile, the question of what horrors will result from not letting speculators make unsolicited low ball offers to fire victims remains unanswered.
