What is the predictable end result of such policies?

Unfortunately, if you get too many “Section 8” or “ghetto” types in an neighborhood, the neighborhood goes downhill.

And those who can will move away, leaving more vacant housing to be filled by more Section 8 people. Which will cause the neighborhood to go further downhill.

I’ve seen this happen in a number of formerly nice suburban areas in some major cities. I go back to visit, and am shocked to see that formerly nice areas have gone ghetto.

So what this means is that the decent people who want to live in a nice area will have to pay much more for housing to be in a safe wealthier area, or will have to move much farther out into more distant suburbs to find a safe place to live.

There won't be anyplace people can move to stay safe. Obama's HUD will target all areas.

Few issues make me as angry as this one. People work hard to afford a nice, quiet, clean, decent neighborhood. Then that good neighborhood is HANDED to people who didn’t work to earn it, many of whom are noisy, dirty, lawless, just generally bad neighbors. Now the original residents are forced to pick up stakes and move...which is expensive and stressful for them. Soon the formerly nice neighborhood is a dump. This is being done on purpose, in neighborhood after neighborhood in this country. How do we fight back against this?

All you need is one.

In the McKinney incident it took ONE rental apartment to bring 100 thugs to trespass and destroy property values.
