This experiment has been done countless times. The government "obtains" some choice land or properties, and either builds or renovates to the tunes of millions and millions of dollars, with glamourous-looking, chic townhomes or condos. It's a regular page out of Home & Garden magazine.

But then the Amish move in with their entitlement mentalities. Since everything was given to them at no real cost, they don't care about maintenance, about upkeep, nor general cleanliness. They don't paint, they don't plant gardens or trees, and they don't repair things that are broken. In five years' time, the entire neighborhood is picked over like a scene from a zombie movie.

It's not about "balancing" diversity or opening up access to more desirable neighborhoods. It's about nihlism, and living a lifestyle that rejects any hope for the future.

Yep.... picking up trash around the house costs less than a pair of air jordans. A couple of gallons of paint costs less than a pair of air jordans. Mowing costs less than a pair of air jordans.
