34. Oh sure getting rid of public housing just moves the poor into tent cities
Edited on Fri Dec-21-07 01:21 PM by Robbien
while the wealthy take over the prime land. And no, the land is not isolated and outside the city. Why do you think the developers want that land so desperately?

You want to knock down public housing. Tell me, where do the people go? There is no other available public housing and any new development will conveniently not build the lower income portion of that so call "mixed housing" redevelopment.

You are in favor of getting rid of that housing which hurts your sensibilities so much. So tell me, where do the people go?

Tent cities in the USA are on the rise because of sentiments such as yours.
