Democrat presidential candidate Joe Biden is touting Wall Street’s support for his $640 billion housing plan that would force low-income, multi-family housing developments into America’s suburban communities.
During a visit to Kenosha, Wisconsin — where the Black Lives Matter organization and members of Antifa have led riots for weeks — Biden told supporters that Wall Street supports his housing plan because it “will increase the GDP.”
“And by the way, it’s not a waste of money. Even the folks on Wall Street point out that will increase the GDP, make it grow,” Biden said of the plan. “People will do better, people will do better.”
Biden’s housing plan, as Breitbart News has noted, would implement an unprecedented expansion of Section 8 housing vouchers while requiring that local communities abolish strict zoning laws in order to become eligible for certain federal grants.
The plan provides a $300 million investment “to give states and localities the technical assistance and planning support they need to eliminate exclusionary zoning policies and other local regulations that contribute to sprawl.”
Communities unwilling to eliminate their zoning laws to allow multi-family, mixed-income housing development in their neighborhoods would be shut out of federal grants under Biden’s plan:
Exclusionary zoning has for decades been strategically used to keep people of color and low-income families out of certain communities. As President, Biden will enact legislation requiring any state receiving federal dollars … to develop a strategy for inclusionary zoning, as proposed in the HOME Act of 2019 by Majority Whip Clyburn and Senator Cory Booker.

I’m sure Biden and Pelosi aren’t going to be living in these neighborhoods.
Remember, Joe Biden said in the past that he opposed school integration because it would turn into jungles.
Biden is a puppet. All of this is being written by his handler.
Bringing the hood to you!
The man needs a straightjacket.
Find the neighborhoods where the mayors, governors, & city councils live and build there first.
Guaranteed, this will do to middle class suburban neighborhood housing what the Community Redevelopment Act Under Clinton and Janet Reno did to mortgage lending right before the industry collapsed in 2008. It will destroy it.
Standards are in place to maintain quality. Lower or eliminate standards altogether and everything will become shit-hole Section 8 slums.
Count on it.
DNC Crack dealers at every intersection of America, so you can all feel the inner city chill.
I bet that plan won’t include his neighborhood.
Circa 1989 in Huntington, West Virginia I lived in a very middle class neighborhood. Close to me was a section 8 house. One day a very sweet and young girl of about 12 years old knocked on my door. She was from next door. I did not know her. She had food stamp vouchers she wanted to sell for cash. She was most certainly doing this by instructions of her parents. Of course I said no. I felt horrible but knew what the hell was going on.
A few weeks later that place caught on fire and most fortunately no one was hurt. The doors were open to the partially burnt out shell of the house. I went in and was appalled not by the damage of the fire. What was appalling was the condition of the house, home, cloths etc. that had not burned. I always wonder what became of that little innocent pretty little girl.
It’s amazing how many of our countrymen have fallen to an agenda of what we’re going to take from you, and what we’re going to force you to do whether you like it or not
Guess old Joe and the Ho will come out after working tax payers, Summer Homes in the country...
but don’t touch his BEACH HOUSE IN ROHOB BEACH...
I have enough shitty screwed up welfare queans living next door as it is.
Kind of like the mayor in Portland huh; rich enough to get the hell out of town when things get hot.
Everybody else, not so much.
Dems plan is to create a vast slave class under their ruling elite. Everything they do plays to that end, from destroying the middle class to thinly veiled white genocide.
People like myself who live in a nice suburb will just create new suburbs when our current neighborhood gets ghettoized.
Is he really this shortsighted?
This is also to DILUTE the Republican votes in suburbs so that the Dems will OWN the Cities and the burbs!
This was OBAMA”s PLAN!!
This “multi-unit housing” would be cheap garbage that is demeaning to those who live in it. Multi-unit housing can be developed that is beautiful, designed with “defensible space” which deters crime, and is pleasant to live in. That is NOT what you typically get out of Section 8 housing. If it were, you would not have the problems that come with it. “People of color” has nothing to do with the issues - it is how they are treated, and how they are treated will affect how they behave and their outlook on life. Left-wing policies destroy their lives and demean these people.
Doubling the amount of urban sprawl. I thought they were against this sort of thing?
