“In many cases this is exactly what has happened. The government moves Section 8 residents into nice neighborhoods. Then mama and daughter’s roster of baby daddies move in. Followed by their “crew” of homeboys and homegirls (and the feral kids they’ve spawned). Loud music accompanied by 3:00 am driveway basketball games, fighting, parties, car break-ins, garage thefts, thugs walking abreast down the street blocking traffic, malt liquor bottles in the unkept yards, squad cars appearing more frequently, and on and on.
And there went the neighborhood. “
That’s exactly what happens. I’m for helping those in need, but not when they aren’t interested in helping themselves and being respectful of others. Too many are lazy slovenly trash who will surround themselves with like kind and who will sink any good neighborhood. You’ll see this happen regularly in good middle class neighborhoods but not in neighborhoods where the ruling elite live who get to make these decisions that ruin other’s lives. It never happens in their neighborhood.
This is an assault on the lower middle working class. They are the ones who get hurt.I bought a nice modest house in a nice neighborhood years ago and then the government moved in some Section 8 people nearby. This reduced the market price of my house and I had to sell it for less. Cost me several thousand dollars.
If you are tich you can buy a house in upscale area that government doesn't put Section 8 people in.
