Your comment doesnt make sense.
The Person I responded to never once disclosed how they knew any information nor if they rented or paid, for all you know, they guessed.
but again, my point was simply to show that it is possible to have a monthly rate at or below 20 dollars. I did that.

But what you showed was only for a couch, clearly you arent suggesting people who live in Section 8, only on couches, are you? They arent any different than you and I..
All I suggested was that if it was a rental, its more than likely weekly, not monthly, and rentals, are the only way a delivery driver would know how much the customer is paying, since if it was a sale, the store would be paid in full, ahead of time, even if it was financed.
Does inclusionary zoning not fit the bill? Because this is what's exactly happening in that county. So I'm not sure why I should be shocked when I have seen the effects firsthand hand in these areas when I lived in MD. This has shown some profound effects in some of the schools as this link shows.
This is one of the many efforts by very liberal county officials whose goal is to reduce economic and racial segregation in one of the wealthiest counties in the country. Just about all of their efforts have backfired.
"The complexes listed below were built, acquired or renovated with public funds, and therefore are required to set aside a certain number of affordable units," the county web page says.
These "luxurious" "free market" condos were built with taxpayer money (the same as a public housing complex) in a city that leeches and leeches off the Federal Government and profits massively from NEEDLESS war, so you're DAMN right they should have to set aside affordable units for working Americans-and many Section 8 tenants work and actually pay a significant amount in rent.
Why is it that some people HATE when the poor receive anything from the Government, but never would dare say a word when the wealthiest in our society are spoonfed TRILLIONS and TRILLIONS?
Why aren't people complaining about the developers of these condos that chose to use PUBLIC MONEY, which required them to set aside units for Section 8? It makes no sense to complain about the poor people, THAT HAD NO SAY IN THE MATTER.
Do you use that line when you sell houses too?
"Over there is a war monger. There is a kleptocracy doctor who should be working for free." and I'm sure that you point out to buyers or put on the listing you put up "Located close to Section 8 housing, just minutes away!"
Doesn't surprise me. Wander if the FEDs also throw parties with prostitutes there. I mean not long ago the people who run HUD were spending millions on business parties themselves. IRS; Secret services constantly. Now DEA and likely FBI/ Justice Dept. that knew and didn't report. Messed up; firing are in order.

You have a problem with one couch ?
Also, at 14 dollars a month, im guessing you could throw in a TV and table for less than 20 dollars total a month. But again, the person I responded to simply said furniture. he didnt say living room set+ TV and blah blah, blah

1. Again, he didnt say rental, i did, and even the link i used wasnt a rental and it was less per month than that the OP used.
2. Credit = revenue. One of the first things you learn when it comes to retail. Your job as a salesmen is to get people to sign up for credit instead of paying in full.
3. As i stated before, the guy I responded to could very well be guessing based on #2, the majority buy on credit,he could just be assuming.
Dont be ridiculous, the only point I was making was rental rates are monthly, not weekly, so when they said $20 a month, they might have meant $20 a week, thus $80 a month..

I'd like to know where you're getting all this stuff that cheap. Well more accurately, my ex probably wants to know.. she has to buy all new crap. you should message her and help her out, she owns nothing now. Might need to go into section 8 soon, that'll drive someone bonkers I'm sure..

But someone who PURCHASED, wouldnt have their monthly rate disclosed to a delivery driver. What part of this dont you understand?

Yes thats because the note is SOLD for more than the cash price, since the store gets the price of the furniture and then a percentage of the interest. If they dont pay, the store still got paid up front, thats how they pay to turn over inventory.
the delivery driver wouldnt have a clue if it was financed or paid by cash because the store already got paid. This is the part you dont understand.
Its the same way with car dealerships etc.

this is like the 8 comment on this.
Yeah, its beyond dumb you would argue with me simply because I said rental terms are weekly for the most part.

If i read the link i gave you correctly, the 14 dollars a month was for 4 years of financing. a 200 dollar tv and 50 dollar table would keep you under 20 dollars including interest.

I understand your argument just fine, im saying their are multiple flaws in your argument. the main one being that everything you are saying is an assumption. Heck as far as you know, the delivery guy is the one who sold them the furniture.

refer back to the previous point.

you are absolutely wrong here, anyone working at a car dealership would be able to know if you paid in full or not. it is one click of a computer away. I would believe it is the same at a furniture store.

1. You replied to my post, not the other way around
2. You are basing your entire argument on an assumption
3. That assumption is based on an argument the person I responded to didnt even make
4. I already proved my point and even gave you a link to a nation wide retailer.
At this point you are just trolling and I dont even know why, but Kentucky is destroying WV so I have time.
