Hillary’s rumored running mate, Housing Secretary Julian Castro, is cooking up a scheme to reallocate funding for Section 8 housing to punish suburbs for being too white and too wealthy.
The scheme involves super-sizing vouchers to help urban poor afford higher rents in pricey areas, such as Westchester County, while assigning them government real-estate agents called “mobility counselors” to secure housing in the exurbs.
Castro plans to launch the Section 8 reboot this fall, even though a similar program tested a few years ago in Dallas has been blamed for shifting violent crime to affluent neighborhoods.
It’s all part of a grand scheme to forcibly desegregate inner cities and integrate the outer suburbs.
Anticipating NIMBY resistance, Castro last month threatened to sue suburban landlords for discrimination if they refuse even Section 8 tenants with criminal records. And last year, he implemented a powerful new regulation — “Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing” — that pressures all suburban counties taking federal grant money to change local zoning laws to build more low-income housing (landlords of such properties are required to accept Section 8 vouchers).

Past time to end any and all “federal grant money”. Keep local money local—and up to locals to decide even whether to forcibly take it via taxation at all.
It’ll push the law-abiding away from the tentacles of public transportation once more.
Not something that environmentalist liberals will be happy to see.
They should relocate them next to THEIR homes and in THEIR neighborhoods.
See how they like it and all their fat cat donors like it.
Baltimore did this to working class white neighborhoods and destroyed them.
Poor people who don’t work for anything appreciate nothing. They care for nothing. And they still want what you have.
If Obama wasn’t such a failure and actually stimulated the economy enough to create jobs and actually improve the lives of black people, they wouldn’t need to do this.
This is just the next gimmick to buy votes and do nothing to improve the lives of anyone.
In a way, it might help ... by exporting inner city crime to the burbs, creating racists out of those not yet facing up to the source of the problem.
Ah, the joys of living out in the country away from town. Out here we refer to it as Section “lovin’ it” Housing :)
As soon as Trump takes office all this stuff will get shite canned.
Kill whitey!!
They are expanding bus service to the suburbs, all part of the plan!
Vouchers for housing, but not for school. Those Democrats sho’ do know how to keep the negroes down on the plantation.
There is another aspect to this. Cities are going broke. The federal govt is broke. The idea I’ve heard is move the federal payment dependent blacks out of the cities, gentrify. Higher prices for landlords and developers, municipalities collect more in taxes— saving their bacon. The role of commercial real estate in credit creation and economic expansion in the US economy is too significant to be threatened by a federal payments crisis. Cities need people who can pay their own way living there. And the only way to kick start that is with entry level housing for young couples. Move the schwartzers to the burbs, bring in young families. Knock down the projects, or at least renovate beyond recognition...which also helps the housing industry and the overall economy.
People should refuse to answer the American Community Survey. If you are at all dark or olive toned, state that you are black under the race question. That is what I did, because I now identify as black, just like transgendered identify themselves as the opposite sex. I am the only black person in the census in my neighborhood, hopefully that skewed the results slightly.All the government does is use that census information against you.
Also, it will dilute the political power of blacks if they spread them out among primarily conservative districts.
My son, a stauch conservative, lives is the East Bay of the San Francisco area. He bought a home for $500,000. He soon found out, across the street from him was a section 8 renter. He found out the owner of the property is well ensconced in the political world in that area.
The section 8 people, (more than one family living in the home)are nothing but PIGs and create all the problems on their block. They have several cars, because they drive taxi cabs, curtains blowing out the window, yard nothing but a pig stye. They do not park in their garage because it’s filled with crap! Noisy all hours of the day and night!
Sure, that’s a great individual response.
But this is a C3 problem... they’ve got focused initiative against traditional America, and we have no organized way to respond other than individually. We don’t have the media and other organs of propaganda, and we don’t have any counter-initative. Paul Ryan? Lindsey? Gimme a break, haha.
And jobs follow them. In N Metro ATL we have high-tech business centers in suburbs like Johns Creek and the Windward parkway area, because that’s where businesses relocated their employees when they moved here.
Instead of bringing prosperity to poor areas, they inject poisons and cancer into non-disfunctional neighborhoods.
The left is insane.
One of the writers at National Review has been tracking this and warning about it for several years. It’s a pretty big deal, but the Obama administration has been very careful about keeping it under the radar.
This also increases the Democrat vote in the suburbs
