Craziest, communistic, most unamerican thing I've ever heard? 

You argue the same points that an Anti-anti communist would. 

I am in Portland and the eviction memorandum has been extended to June 30.I feel like we have become a communist country where the government puts all the burden on us to deal with.

It is its own unique communist enclave that is known for having some of the most anti-landlord / anti-property owner laws in the country.

Cost of living is too high in CA and will only continue to go up in the near/mid future.Additionally, CA is becoming more communistic by the day.

I didn't really mind, but in my context (a college) some folks are not as keen on free market capitalism in general....With just one mid-level condo housing a professional at market rates--someone called me a "slum lord" and another said I was "a capitalist" (the latter of which I think they meant as derogatory--but I kinda appreciated or preferred to being called socialist or communist). 

Which is fine, we aren't communists, but no one is buying the gallant wholesalers riding in on their white horses to save the poor distressed sellers fairytale. 

Glad to see you're trying to invest in Cleveland vs that dirty communist hell hole Portland.

This coupled with a Afganistan debacle led by a demented man with cognitive decline led a communist nation to be brave enough to invade Ukraine causing European supply chains to be disrupted. 

BUT you live in that communist hell hole California so buying a rental property close to home is probably a bad move.
