If anyone is looking for Common Sense, it is in Charlotte, NC.
...When I lived in Charlotte in the late 80s the Earle Village Projects were a mess....the 1990 census couldn’t tell how many people were “staying”* there....so they sent census takers to go door to door and do a physical count...a census taker knocks on the front door, and some black guy runs out the back door....drugs, shootings, illigitimate children, stolen cars, gambling, parole violators, community organizers all contained in public housing just a couple of blocks from down town.
*Q: “Say Jamal, where you stay at?”
A: “Oh I stays down aroun’ Earle Village”
Yeah, throw people and their kids who can’t get jobs into the street in the worst economic times I ever remember. Wow, great people in Charlotte.
I’ll believe it when it happens. This is Lib City. I am surprised even a proposal like this saw the light of day.
