Ever spent time in a Section 8 neighborhood? Any time people rent there's the chance they won't take care of the property like an owner would.

In Section 8 housing this effect is magnified as the people living there are takers/low info people and really don't give a damn.

For example, witness the trash and garbage the rabid mob left behind at the Section 8 disturbance:

Free housing, people riot over. Taking away Constitutional freedoms, not so much. That’s a nice looking lawnchair there to the left.

I was flipping through the channels yesterday and landed on the 'doc' channel for a minute because they were talking about restoration of significant buildings all over the U.S. and needing Federal funding for such restoration projects.

It caught my attention because they we talking about Churches (they were 'black' Presbyterian, Baptist etc.) needing restoration because they were significant to the areas. Then, they started talking about an apartment complex in Chicago that was built by a wealthy man who passed the black neighborhood on his way to work and was disgusted by how the folks there were living. He built these beautiful apartments and many older black folks in the area have fond memories of growing up in those beautiful buildings. Then, the narrator explained that the building were now vacant due to neglect and destruction that happened when the buildings were converted to Section 8 housing.

Wish I could remember the name of the place.

In Maryland ( THE Freak state) in Avenel they were forced to build some mpdu's (moderate priced dwelling units) for the less-privileged. They were very nice...brick townhouses. The loser community eligible said they were "like slave houses" because they were small compared to the several million dollar mansions in Avenel. Ingrates. Degenerates.

I've said it before and I'll say it again. If someone needs help, I'd prefer a church or nonprofit help them but since politicians insist on perverting the welfare clause, there's some changes I'd like to see made. Section 8 housing should be in a completely fenced compound, gated and 24 hour manned by armed guard -preferably military. Housing should consist of 1 room, hot plate, bathroom with shower, no a/c, no TVs allowed, no pools, no basketball, no playgrounds, no nothing. Food should be given out daily, no cash. These people should be made uncomfortable in their poverty.

You are correct, they are ingrates and their entitlement mentality is getting worse.

I only go to a mall if I have money to spend and am planning to buy something.

What’s that old tried and true statement....”God only helps those who help themselves”?
