What is the effect of public housing on the rest of real estate prices?
Q. I hear there is a 3 to 7 year wait for people to get into public housing. A friend of mine is in an apartment that qualifies. My question is, what would happen if public housing were to be entirely eliminated so that the government didn't have any control over that anymore? Or what would happen if there were twice the number of public housing units so that the waiting list was cut down to something like 3 to 6 months? I'm just curious as to the economic repercussions, coming from a very non-economic background. Your opinion please?

A. It would not happen, the economic repercussions with all those people being homeless would be devastating. No one wants that, and we all pay a lot of money to keep that from happening. Doubling the projects (the only actual public housing) would not lower the wait period. The tax burden would be tremendous, likely bankrupt the country, even though it look like Obama is determined to do that anyway. What would more likely happen is the strain on the prison system would be cut way down, as they would release the less dangerous inmates and put them into the projects, which is a lot cheaper then housing them in a prison. Even without the inmates I do not think the wait list would cut down, the amount of welfare fraud would simply… [cont.]

What is the most public or daring place you have ever been naked?
Q. My wife and I were in a public pool naked, but no one was there at the time and we watched the doors to see if people were coming. We also ran around naked at a public lake with a nature museum, but it was very late at night, so again no one saw us. I wouldn't want anyone to catch us but its a lot of fun to take the risk anyway. Super exhilarating and freeing.

A. The most public place that I've been naked is in New Orleans on Bourbon Street. I was with several of my male and female coworkers. The males were daring the women to flash their breasts for beads. The problem was I was wearing a dress, and there was no easy way to just expose my breasts. But that didn't stop the males from tearing me in teasing me. So I would pull my dress all the way up and I was totally naked underneath. This I would consider most public because there were probably literally hundreds of people that had the opportunity to see every stitch of me. The most daring place I ever got naked was at my husbands workplace Christmas party. To this day I have no idea what got into me. There were at least 75 to 80… [cont.]

Where can I look at public records without paying a website money for access?
Q. If public records are free to the public, how come everywhere I go on the internet wants money for access? I want to see who all has gone to jail and stuff like that... I just want to go to a website and see if any of my friends have gone to jail...No specific jail.

A. Are you serious? A company invests its own money in a risky marketplace to gather and market and present information and you think they don't deserve to be paid for it? Then go invest your money in getting the information you want, the same way they did. Sounds like you only need a small subset of it, go get to work, it shouldn't be so hard, right? Or is your time worth something and theirs isn't?
