HUD to Use Eminent Domain to Integrate Neighborhoods [semi-satire]
Semi-News/Semi-Satire ^ | 12 Feb 2023 | John Semmens

Posted on 02/13/2023 8:40:15 AM PST by John Semmens

Secretary of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) Marcia Fudge says she will "break down the barriers that keep minorities from living in elite neighborhoods by using the power of eminent domain granted to the government by the Fifth Amendment to the US Constitution."

"Since the integration of American society is an important public good, the government has the authority to seize private property for the purpose of achieving a better mix of colors and ethnicity in the nation's neighborhoods," Fudge contended. "All we have to do is pay just compensation for the property we take. No one has the right to object."

Fudge said "the inspiration for this dramatic new approach to achieving housing equity came from seeing how several of our cities have been moving indigent immigrants into posh hotels in ritzy neighborhoods. I thought, if we can do this for people who aren't even citizens, why can't we do this for poor people who are citizens? We'll just buy some of the best houses in the best neighborhoods around the country and let poor people live in them rent-free just like the immigrants live in those hotels rent-free."

Presidential Press Secretary Karine Jean Pierre said "the President really likes this idea and thinks Secretary Fudge ought to get a Nobel Prize for it. He just isn't sure whether it should be a Nobel Peace prize for bringing the country closer to total unity or an Economics prize for promoting a more equitable sharing of the nation's wealth."

We’re forcibly taking the property of whites to give to blacks and having the audacity to say the whites are the oppressors.

A lot of those people who be pi**ed off by this are Democrat voters, and more to the point Democrat contributors.

Get rid of HUD. Keep Section 8. Kevin Williamson wrote it somewhere.

These ‘neighborhoods’ are going to need public transportation for the po’ folk to get to work and use their EBD cards. Some of these ‘neighborhoods’ don’t even have sidewalks. Think Hillsboro, Ca. Heh heh.

Since the integration of American society is an important public good

The eminent domain clause of the 5th Amendment addresses property for public use, not public good. That is the error made by the Supreme Court in the Kelo case where a property was taken with the justification that the replacement use would generate more tax revenue for the city of New London.

Invading a high end neighborhood to impose racial integration using eminent domain is NOT a "public use". It is abuse of private property rights to push an agenda. Inserting a big section 8 housing in the middle of a high end neighborhood goes well beyond a taking of the property used for the section 8 housing. It is a taking of the property value of all of the properties surrounding the section 8. Bring on the lawyers for all the surrounding properties affected. Force the government to pay market value prior to their attempt to insert the section 8.

There was a great book I read [Little Pink House] about the Kelo case, very eye opening about Government tyranny. Also there is a documentary with the same name which I have not seen yet but it sounds very good.

These semi-satire pieces do not help our cause. Is this real? Fake? I’ve seen some which turn out to be real, yet this one looks fake. It seems like an effort to make it so we will not know what is real and worthy of protesting, and what is fake.

I would not give this site links or clicks, it seems like it is just trying to confuse our side.
