But I really do think think the federal government doesn’t have any business forcing re zoning laws to build high rise or lots of apartments…It’s more of an eye sore, traffic and population density issues. Ill never forget I worked with a super liberal who knows Tim Kaine…the amount of hell she raised when an abandon mall project was to install affordable housing near her. All those progressives bitched and complained, finally stopped it. NIMBY always with the libs

------------------- In early 2009, the Obama administration made a surprising, probably unprecedented accusation against Westchester County, New York—a pretty liberal place. According to the Obama administration, Westchester was an instrument of white supremacy — not the good liberals who live in Westchester, Bill and Hillary Clinton and Alexandria Ocasio Cortez, many others. No one accused them of being bigots. The problem was the buildings they lived in. All those single-family homes — row upon leafy row, set back from the street, well-tended lawns and mailboxes — were examples of racism — literally "structural racism." The only solution, the Obama people announced, was much greater density: more subsidized housing complexes in Westchester, more hi-rise apartment buildings, maybe some drug-addicted vagrants living on the sidewalk, begging for change. Only if Westchester became more like the Bronx could it become non-racist. https://www.foxnews.com/opinion/tuck...infrastructure ------------------------------- "According to the Obama administration, Westchester was an instrument of white supremacy .." This is just straight dog whistle word salad to rile up the Tucker Carlson fan base ... This program was started in the 70s under Ford, not Obama This program requires 70% of the grant money to be used towards developing low to moderate income housing .. so if your exclusively single family only zoning, you cant use 70% of the grant money to help low to moderate income bc you have no low to moderate income. Obama wasnt forcing communities to build high rises etc. Westchester was taking money they should have never received by intentionally committing fraud on their grant application forms. People who watched Carlsons show think Obama is forcing white communities to have "drug addicted vagrants living on their streets" .... when this is not true, not even close to true im just amazed at the level Carlson will lie and his viewers take it as gospel. This took 2 minutes of googling to fact check Stunning example of Tucker Carlson being an absolute untrustworthy source of information .. fake news, misinformation .... |

Here is Robert Reich doing the same fucking thing. Sending a letter of support against a prosposal of affordable housing complex built in his neighborhood. He didn’t even have the fucking balls to speak publicly…yet he can’t shut the fuck up about affordable housing across the county. What a fucking coward. Clinton cabinet member and Obama advisor…what a fucking piece of hypocritical shit

I dont know Reich and dont give a shit about defending him but ..this article is about whether this single home in berkeley should be preserved as historic landmark or developed into like a 5 unit duplex. Reich supported the 130 year old house as being designated a historic landmark AND said the proposal would include exactly 1 low income unit. This article is a very poor choice to examine or discuss low or affordable housing in major cities. --------------- I 100% agree with your premise .. people support low income housing .. until low income housing comes to their street. Then its "oh fuck no". I wish I had affordable housing arund my house, I got straight up section 8 and it sucks. Littering and loittering non stop. Denmark prided itself on being open and accepting and tolerant of other cultures .. then muslim immigrants started showing up and they are passing special rules for "non-western" immigrants. |

1. Look at the house…that’s of historical significance? It’s falling down trash and we can easily see they are using a loophole. 2. Funny how we aren’t aligning with the activist in the story who is claiming minorities have been historically forced out of this area and have an opportunity to change that with this project…they wouldn’t be involved if that wasn’t the case or are they just lying? 3. Reich refusing to speak and when asked saying only 1 unit if deemed affordable. This is the proposal to get plans on books for vote and not the final plan..he is looking for an out because he knows he’s being a hypocrite per the usual. If Reich was honestly a proponent for affordable housing he would support the project and demand most units be “deemed” affordable housing. You don’t do what he is doing. This is a perfect example..white progressives using an bad faith loophole to keep out housing you want the federal government to impose. This is like the Black Lives Matter ceo buying the mansion in 98% white elite neighborhood. When your actions do this, it’s tells everyone your not a serious person…no body pushing the lie of white supremacy moves into the the whitest neighborhood in Florida. It’s clown shit, it’s a grift…you’ve been duped

Im sure there are much better situations and articles to be a medium for the pros and cons of affordable housing. I posted a long article about the Wharf development in DC that has a lot more meat on the bone if we wanted to chew on the pros and cons of affordable housing and gentrification. Gentrification, white flight and now the white return ... that interests me for the sociology and nature of humans approach .... I really dont give a shit about trying to score political points on here or defending some dude I dont know who wrote a letter about 1 old house in a city all the way across the country. I was in Bethany Beach this weekend with my brother who just bought a beach house for 620k about 5 miles from the beach. And he didnt even view or look at the house before buying it. Bought it online. Some of his buddies also bought beach houses this summer, one bought a 1.5M beach house. It was stunning to spend time with the "haves" of the world. I bought my townhouse for 240k ... imagine having income to just buy a beach house for 620k to 1.5M just because. I hated Trump and did play the "us v them" when he was president .. but now? man i really really really dont give a shit about defending a D. |

Im a liberal mooby. And that train of thought absolutely does not represent me. Off the top of my head i can think of about 300 other friends and family members that wouldn’t be represented by that lady. |
