allowed property owners to recoup some of the losses but it says apartment owners are out $27 billion. there was one man who sold a rental building in seattle because he can t make all the payments. our politicians talk about wanting more affordable housing. they are creating all the ordinances that create an impossible balance of power between landlords and tenants. we can t maintain a safe environment for our good tenants because of a couple bad ones. it was put in place the slow the spread of covid when millions of americans were laid off during government shutdowns. supreme court upheld it narrowly but indicated it wouldn t be allowed past july 31st without congress passing a law. well yesterday the cdc ignored that court directive and instituted a moratorium in places where covid infections are up. eight states across the country have their own eviction moratorium in place. washington is one.
about 1 to 3 people dying daily and it completely ignores the fact that you have upwards of 10 million children with natural immunity who have such lower risk of a severity of covid than any vaccinated adult. unvaccinated children have the same risk as a vaccinated adult. at some point the united states has to start following the science and truly start acknowledging natural immunity and the fact that children are at very low risk. the vaccine passports don t make sense and don t follow the science. bill: watch that. you say we ve gone from urging, to bribing, to mandating. is it legal? yeah, we have and look, to echo dr. saphier s point for a quick second. just because something is legally sustainable doesn t mean it s the right thing to do. we do under the constitution give a great deal of authority to local governments to take care of public safety. so there is a lot of discretion there for them to impose things.
eviction ban has to end sometime. tenants and landlords have to work it out and better now than later. supreme court said you can t do this after july. it is august now. should the supreme court have an emergency ruling and come back and say that s against the law? yes. and i suspect somebody will file suit and try to get in front of the supreme court. now whether the supreme court will take the case or not i don t know. but let me say it again with permanent washington types who run this place and under this administration make most of the decisions, the constitution is just a nuisance. bill: you mention covid. here is your state where it ranks, in the bottom five of vaccination, louisiana checks in at 37.1%. behind you alabama, mississippi, arkansas and wyoming. what is happening and why you think people are hesitant? this is america. we re all entitled to our opinion. here is mine.
bill: interesting development there. meanwhile the biden administration bowing to pressure from the hard left. the supreme court said you can t do the moratorium on evictions. john kennedy is coming up next. so many delicious snacks. -they re -nope. would you say, ballpark, when group two is gonna get boarded? 2 hours and 58 minutes. progressive can t protect you from becoming your parents, but we can protect your home and auto when you bundle with us. someone should ve left home earlier.
