Obama's AFFH - a glaring example of why Leftists can't be put in charge.

Care to explain to me how this isn't too much govt?
The Federal Government wants to enforce who can live in which neighborhoods. At this point a person has to be considered clinically insane to be a part of the American Left.
Leftists are Marxists, and Marxists hate freedom.

So does it only apply to communities that want or receive HUD money?

Is this really a thing for anybody who doesn't live in section 8?

That's my understanding. Once you take their money, they have you by the balls.

That's the way I read it too. Government money always has strings.

This is some soviet-level shite. I hate this president.

The Obama administration's changes aim to provide cities with specific guidance and reams of data on integration and segregation patterns, racially and ethnically concentrated areas of poverty and areas of high housing need.
Communities will be required to set goals based on the data for smarter investments in housing, schools and transportation that will be closely monitored, Castro said.

It will be. That's the plan.

Communities are built by businesses. This shite won't go anywhere.

Not when you have Marxists in charge. Your community, neighborhood and school will be "monitored closely" to ensure that it is appropriately integrated racially, ethnically and socioeconomically.
I'm starting to believe we actually need a Trump in office to unravel the insane policies of this president.

The real drivers of wealth and community matter little when one must follow government orders on pain of imprisonment.

FYI, this has been happening in schools here in Louisville since the 70s.
They also started a "scattered housing" push in the city under GWB in order to "spread out" Section 8 housing.
This isn't anything new unfortunately.

I don't know, that article makes it sound like he's just executing some goals and laws of legislation passed in 1968.
But the article really isn't all that informative.
quote:
Besides banning outright discrimination, the 1968 law required cities that receive federal housing money to promote equal opportunity and access to housing regardless of race, origin, religion, sex or disability. But little was done at the time or in the years since to explain precisely what the law's requirement to "affirmatively further" such goals meant or how to achieve that.
But the article really isn't all that informative.

Because residents of project A hate residents of project B and clique up and boom gang violence. Spreading out section 8 housing is a decent idea to try and curb some of that violence, it won't work but it was a good idea.

HUD targeted struggling apartment complexes in my city. Offered all kinds of cash to the management companies in order to move "low income" families into these apartments in an affluent area. Crime has gone through the roof in response and the rent has dropped accordingly for surrounding properties, which has invited even more dirt bags in. What used to be a quiet suburban city has turned into a festering shite hole.

All it did here was spread out crime rates.

The Fair Housing Act outlawed overt discrimination.
This extension of power is about enforcing equal outcomes.
There's a difference. This is over-reach. Every neighborhood, city, street is now under scrutiny until it achieves the government mandated diversity ratio.
This type of government attempt at enforcement of equal outcomes ruined big city public schools. It will have a similar impact on the cities themselves. Its a bigger deal than I think some of you realize.
