    I'm quite certain it will only backfire.

    Is bringing down property values necessarily a bad thing? When one bedrooms cost $3,500/mmth and a home costs $1m plus how affordable is that to the average person or how sustainable is that if it keeps going? Our population continues to grow but we have people fighting against new development which only drives up pricing. That's great if you already own but not so much otherwise. It makes for a less dynamic economy and reduces opportunity for people.

    Dems are such moralistic dullards.

    Do you have any idea what happens when Section 8 is forced into a working class neighborhood?

    Of course not they didn't teach you that at Fascist University did they?
    No, I'm totally ignorant, and you're my intellectual superior. Please explain it to me, citing innumerable examples that I'm sure you have at the ready, given your heady confidence in spouting this shit.

    Exactly. Class segregation is no better for society than racial segregation.

    I'm laughing because everytime I meet a racist shitbag who says "I'm not white" it usually means they have one Hispanic grandparent or some shit.


    I'm not shocked at all that you miss every point thrown your way.

    Separation would solve the issues.

    But, anti Racists tend to be dumb.

    In a number of these well to do areas it's becoming very bi-fricated, you have the rich and poor and a very shrining middle. It's far from ideal.

    The modern trend for urban planning is mixed-type housing. We live in a single-family home, but we're a block from townhomes, condos, and apartments. It actually makes for a vibrant, enjoyable community.

    I live in a high rise condo. I can go several blocks in one direction and see extremely expensive homes. I can go several blocks in the other direction and be at a number of strip clubs. The 'beauty' of urban living. But I too enjoy it very much and it is very vibrant.

    My preference would be to stay in the City forever but having a young daughter other factors come into play. So as much as I don't want to we've given consideration of moving to the 'burbs. I get the appeal of having a single family home with a yard in a neighborhood with other families and good public schools. I understand that when people move into those types of neighborhoods they usually aren't gung ho to see them change much. I also know the history of segregation and how zoning was used to shape neighborhoods. Thus my support for new development and changing many of the single-family only zoning both comes from a free market perspective as well as the opportunity such development can provide.

    My view:
    1. If you're 'young', you want to live in a 'Metro Area' where you can meet other young people.
    2. Once you become married and have children, you want 'clean air, clean water, and open spaces', which means moving to Suburbia.
    3. Most people want to move into a Subdivision that reflects their 'economic status'. Meaning 'Gated Communities', 'Zoned Single-Family', 'Mix of Family Units', 'Trailer Parks'.
    4. Black or White, I would guess 50% want to live in a 'Community' that reflects their race.

    I tried to elicit this from BAC, but he didn't reply.
