August Will Be A Real Turning Point – Welcome To The Biggest Eviction Horror Show In U.S. History by for The Economic Collapse Blog
It is the beginning of August, and a day of reckoning has finally arrived for renters all over the nation. Since last September, a moratorium that was issued by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has been protecting millions of renters that have been unable or unwilling to make their monthly rent payments. But now that moratorium is officially over, and all of that back rent is due. For some renters, that will mean that nearly a full year of rent will need to be paid. The millions of Americans that cannot or will not pay what is owed can now be legally evicted. This is a major national disaster that has been building up for many months, and now it is finally here.
Welcome to the biggest eviction horror show in American history.
It is going to be a doozy.

Some are still desperately hoping that members of Congress will do something once they return from their August vacations. At this point, that does not appear likely.
So for now, there doesn’t appear to be any hope of averting the largest eviction tsunami that any of us have ever seen.
Of course it was inevitable that this day was going to come sooner or later. After all, what else could we do? Did anyone out there actually think that it would be possible to tell landlords that they could never collect rent ever again?
If we did that, there wouldn’t be any more landlords.
So many landlords out there are really hurting financially right now. In fact, some of them have not been able to collect rent from certain tenants since the eviction moratorium was first put into place last September…
Due to widespread job loss and the health risks of the Covid-19 pandemic, many renters in the US faced difficulty making their rent payments every month when the pandemic began in early 2020, and the federal government stepped in to prevent people from getting evicted in the midst of it. As part of this response, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention instituted a moratorium in September 2020 that prevented landlords from evicting their tenants regardless of whether they could pay their monthly rent in full or at all.
Now the wait is over, and landlords have nearly a year’s worth of eviction notices to file.
During the early part of this week, landlords are going to be racing to take advantage of the opportunity that they suddenly have. There is still a possibility that Congress could decide to do something in a few weeks, and so landlords will want to evict people as quickly as they can.
