Reply #45: "70 Percent of former residents" WILL NOT BE ALLOWED TO RETURN under HOPE VI.

[Leopolds Ghost]

Get a clue. You have no understanding of how corrupt New Orleans is.

HANo is one of the most corrupt.

Of COURSE NOLA had pre-existing plans to tear down all public housing
under HOPE VI, just as they planned to build casinos in Ward 9 before
the storm. Katrina just gave these plans a leg up.

This is an organizing thread. DUers who support HOPE VI, DUers who
support Welfare Reform Act, DUers who don't support public housing
or the right of return should start their own thread.

It has nothing to do with whether there is a "housing shortage" for
middle class DUers' perspective. There is a housing shortage across
America for non-property owners. Tearing down public housing and
replacing it with owner-occupied housing, or a reduced number of units,
is a crime.
