HUD Proposes Plan to Racially, Economically Integrate Neighborhoods

Move would allow Obama administration to institute policies that would better integrate communities

The Department of Housing and Urban Development has proposed a new plan to change U.S. neighborhoods it says are racially imbalanced or are too tilted toward rich or poor, arguing the country's housing policies have not been effective at creating the kind of integrated communities the agency had hoped for.

The proposed federal rule, called "Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing," is currently under a 60-day public comment period. Though details of how the policy would specifically work are unclear, the rule says HUD would provide states, local governments and others who receive agency money with data and a geospatial tool to look at "patterns of integration and segregation; racially and ethnically concentrated areas of poverty; access to education, employment, low-poverty, transportation, and environmental health."

States would then assess the best way to integrate communities deemed by HUD's data to not be integrated enough. A HUD official, who did not want to speak on record because of the public comment period, said the rule hopes to better match up HUD-assisted housing with the communities that have good hospitals, schools and other assets.

More crackpot socialist ideas from America's favorite community organizer.

This will result in a housing crash that will make 2008 look like the good old days.

Will they start with Hussein’s hood first?

[RC one]

more effing Obamunism.

[SIDENET]

Crush the middle class by destroying the suburbs where they live.

This is not random, nor is it haphazard.

[married21]

Is this supposed to insert more Democrats into Republican areas? Sounds like gerrymandering with people instead of boundary lines.

Kinda reminds me of Germany in about 1933.

You know, right before all of the REAL FUN kicks off.

Makes me want to puke.

[Paladin2]

Screw up gerrymandering.

[Jonty30]

I believe that it is being done for three main reasons.

1. To provide a new source of revenue for diversity lawyers and hustlers.
2. To muddy the waters of crime statistics to make it seem those ethnic groups overrepresented are more evenly spread out.
3, It’s an indirect attack on the Second Amendment because when the punks start attacking law abiding citizens and are shot for it, there will be a hue and cry as to how suburb America is using guns to keep out the disadvantage.

[popdonnelly]

Well, I guess the Obama Administration is our enemy. But be cool, it will all work out in the end.

I can definitely see the voting aspect, where the thugs force their ability to vote multiple times.

[stboz]

Do the name “block breaker” ring a bell?

[Olog-hai]

Hmm; where did we hear this before? Oh yeah . . .

(G)radual abolition of all the distinction between town and country by a more equable distribution of the populace over the country. …

Marxism sure does a number on one’s mind.
