Biden admin to mandate &#8220;fairness&#8221;&#8221; Government &#8220;fairness&#8221; has a way of not being fair.<\/p>\n<p>The article reports:<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"><strong>If you\u2019ve been renting, especially a single-family house vice an apartment, you\u2019ve been on pins and needles the entire time, not knowing if it would be sold out from under you if the owner decides to cash in on good times, vice continues to deal with tenants. Almost every aspect has been fraught with anxiety for all concerned.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"><strong>A good portion of this is attributable to measures taken (with questionable authority) by the Centers for Disease Control.
