    Abandonned properties are generally blighted. Blighted properties are not, however, as abandonned as you seem to think

    You're a moron. Making homes livable again and improving the area are good things. You just object to who you perceive is profiting. You wouldn't have a problem if minorities improved their property and caused values to raise.

    With gentrification you sometimes (often) price out the working poor.

    It happens. The alternative is to leave areas poor and not invest in them. Is that any better?

    The homes are often livable to begin with. I am not the moron who doesn't understand how gentrification works. I also did not say I opposed the program, illiterate. It is better, however, to build housing for the poor than it is to chase them into other neighborhoods. It happens time and time again everywhere. They move to the next cheapest neighborhood they can find, often an older working class area that then becomes the new slum as the retirees and working class flee. Owner occupied homes become low-end slum lord rental units that fall into disrepair because the rents do not justify the re-investment and upgrades in the property. Rinse and repeat. Investors do not move into these areas intending to rent to the same people who live there. They are going to rehab and demand market rate rents.

    The homes are more often not livable. You clearly have no idea what you are talking about. I actually work in the home improvement trades so I have extensive experience with renovations in blighted areas.

    Yes, it's unfortunate for the poor people when they can no longer benefit from living in a run down area after new owners come in and clean the area up. Humans value nice things. When you make homes nice again, they are worth more. I don't know how to get you to understand that those areas should not have been valued so low and it was the state of disrepair that led to the low value.

    I'm not the one with a criminal record and a history of confinement in a mental institution. That would be the faux Saudi princess.
