NYC Announces Plan to Equalize Neighborhoods
Semi-News/Semi-Satire ^ | 23 May 2014 | John Semmens

Posted on 05/27/2014 10:17:58 AM PDT by John Semmens

Concerned that the City is an inhomogeneous hodgepodge with pockets of great wealth in some neighborhoods and squalor in others, newly appointed Housing Preservation and Development Commissar Vicki Been announced a plan to move 80,000 to 120,000 poorer families into middle class neighborhoods.

“This way instead of having blight and filth in every direction they might look poorer families will be within easy walking distance of a better kept neighborhood,” Been boasted. “The crimes that plague poorer sections of our City would be more evenly dispersed throughout the whole City. Victims will come from a more broadly representative subset of the City’s overall population.”

Been apologized for not being able to move at least some of these poorer families into upper class sections of the City. “Ideally, there shouldn’t be any distinctions across socioeconomic differences,” Been said. “But current budgetary constraints prevent us from taking a more aggressive approach. Resources that ought to be communally owned are still in private hands. Over the long term it is Mayor De Blasio’s hope that a fairer allocation of these economic resources by City authorities will effectively break down the class and income distinctions that continue to pollute our society.”

Now even more of the rich will bail out of NY, along with the upscale businesses.

Can’t be satire.

Heck, this is right out of the (first grade writing level) libtard bible.

With Comrade Obamatollah’s communist utopia, it’s almost impossible to differentiate satire from reality...

You don’t have to do satire when it comes to the liberal pusshole posing as a city, New York because any ridiculous thing you can think of, believe me they will do.

If only!

Wouldn't you love to watch the Hollywood elites who live in Greenwich Village and SoHo try to stop this with a politically correct counterattack?

At last - a movie comedy worth paying for!

Why is Mayor what’s his name placing poor people into middle class neighborhoods?Why doesn’t he share the wealth and place them where he and his wealthy liberal friends live?

Satire? Several upscale developments in the Raleigh area have poorer, apartments/tenements at the entrance to the development.
At least some were required back during Jimmie the Next to Last.

Bravo John, but sometimes I think you’re quoting the actual words of these lunatics. I read the real statement by Comrade Been, and it’s not too dissimilar from your parody.

A lot of the middle class will be right behind them.

Blasio is wrecking NY; I only regret that the idiots who voted him in have now decided to leave and take their liberal policies with them.
