Because poor neighborhoods can afford expensive electric vehicles.

Are they going to order Rolls Royce to put more dealerships in the hood, too? Po peoples shouldn’t have to drive their big gas guzzling Rolls Royces all the way to white neighborhoods just to get service.

If it is a poor neighborhood how do they afford electric cars? You can’t get a cheap one.

Well, we can’t have the poor driving around in their $70,000 electric cars searching for a charge station, now can we?

“Why force the homies to leave their neighborhood looking for prey, when you can draw them instead into their neighborhood!”

“While charging, a ring around the car’s charge port blinks green — quickly at first, then slower as the battery fills. The illumination ceases when the car’s locked to avoid drawing attention.” http://www.motortrend.com/news/tesla-supercharger-an-in-depth-look/

Musk has it covered!
But they need a double Jurassic Park fence.
Triple?

Time to invest in Solyndra, Google wind turbines and algae farms...oh wait...(moment of clarity here)how will California sustain all this since Sacto hates all electrical power? Agenda 21 and net loss on anything growing in the hood.

I worked for a start up that took Chicago Housing Authority work to get going.

Some was very nice, some worse than you could imagine.

Security doors covered with steel plate and a million through bolts. Some almost fully caved in with sledge hammers. They looked like an explosive device was detonated next to them.

A large piece of used equipment with copper inside, over 2000 pounds total weight, went up a flight of stairs and off into the night.
No signs of tire tracks in the surrounding grass, no dust or fragments from abrasive cutting, no burn marks from a touch...

IMO, it was like many ants moving a large chunk of food?????

Today’s example of the insanity caused by the brutal mental disease brought on by liberalism.
There is an example almost every day now. However, for some reason, this one delights me to no end. Sitting here just LMAO.

“This is a great idea based on sound economic principals”

Yes, in fact it is!

Buried in the project specifications will be a line that call for 20% of all workers be residents of that neighborhood.

Once at a meeting where this line was called out, my owner said, give us an address and we will mail them a check.
( no need to actually work)

They may be poor and dumb, but they’re not broke and certainly not stupid.

Are you suggesting this may be a wealth redistribution scheme? I am shaking my head in disbelief....

Sounds like $200,000 Hillary speeches to me. Someone is having money funneled to them.
