This is actually a very big deal. Obama’s AFFH was in the business of putting low income housing smack dab in the middle of affluent communities to punish them with crime.
But strangely not in places where the wealthy Dem libs live...
And to dilute Republican voting blocs.
Here in NJ it wasn’t to “punish with crime” - it was to attach them to viable hosts (working homeowners saddled with huge property tax bills) when state aid to the urban welfare reservations dried up (the state was broke). We pay for all of our municipal services locally, and without massive transfers of wealth into cities with no real tax bases, they couldn’t pay for anything.
The real destruction of suburbs here is caused first by the lack of Americans willing to 1) have children, and 2) buy homes. The taxes are too high for the McJob economy that has developed here (as real jobs left), and young Americans seek opportunity elsewhere - following the employers as they leave.
NY is watching the same scenario play out; that is why they offer “free” college. It is actually an indentured servitude, where you must live in the state one year after graduation for each year of tuition you accept - a blatant attempt to stop the young “White flight” out of the high-tax, McJob-economy dump.
