The Obama administration has started its push to expand low-income housing into “higher opportunity areas.”

The Department of Housing and Urban Development last week announced a “landmark” settlement agreement with Baltimore County that will serve as a catalyst to “promote housing mobility” and “address residential segregation.”

The goal is to move low- and very-low-income people out of the city and into the suburbs. …

NUKE HUD!!!!

It is unconstitutional. That’s all that should need to be said. But apparently more is needed to convince folks. OK, how about HUD does much more harm that good. It is another arm of the government that interferes with the economy and creates more poverty.

This has always been one of his great Marxist schemes, to break down the neighborhoods and turn them all into crime ridden drug infested slums while he and his cronies luxuriate in their off limits gated communities or retire on tropical islands away from the proletariat.

The already have ‘affordable housing’. It is my understanding there that nearly all of the homes in the more upscale neighborhoods have OWNERS.

Therefore they are ‘affordable’, at least to enough people.

They tried that in upscale Hillsboro near San Francisco. No bus lines. No sidewalks.

Here is an interesting line of thought. If the populace is equally distributed then blacks will never make up more than about 14% of any area. That would mean no place would ever be majority black. Liberals hate math except when the can use it to perpetuate lies. Liberals want black representation but hate safe white districts. The math says if enough blacks live in one place their will be other places with no blacks and it will have nothing to do with white racism. The actual cause would be the preference of blacks to live with other blacks.

Excellent move. It has always been unfair that criminals have to live in areas where you can’t make a livable take.

Does concentrating poverty make it worse? Yes.
Does moving people with bad habits cause them to suddenly value education, marriage and work more? Occasionally.
Does putting poor people in wealthy neighborhoods help their kids do better in life? Sometimes.
Does putting entire poor communities result in these moderate benefits? Nope.

So a whole bunch of people who worked their tails off to afford a nice neighborhood with good schools are about to be blessed with neighbors who had it handed to them. Crime, drugs, graffiti, break-ins, all KINDS of wonderful vibrancy will result. The decent people will be forced to move. The neighborhood will go downhill and turn into a dump. To be repeated all over this nation.

What an interesting development. The rich LIBs deserve to live with their beloved ferals. How liberal of them. I laugh at their “safe” neighborhoods.

This game has already been played in Detroit. But I’m sure it will work this time.

My brother had a Property Manager take care of his house while he was on duty oversea. The scummy P/M rented to a section 8 tenant [unmarried with three whelps and another on the way] who practically destroyed the house within less than six months [yes, they were Amish]. It took almost another 9 months to pry them out of there. I got a call from a teacher at the local school wondering if I knew were the family had gone and how upset they were at the school because the Section 8 urchins were the only “minorities we had”
