Now the emphasis is on tearing these blights down and moving the families to the suburbs, like Bollingbrook and Woodridge, where I lived for several years next to people moving in from the projects. They need this chance, to get away from vertical incarceration and into the air. The inherent goodness of these vastly Christian yet illiterate people is blighted by their lack of opportunity in the City; imagine having to walk 2 or three miles through gangland just to go to a grocery store because there are none in the projects. When I realized the inhumanity of public housing, I stopped blaming these people and started blaming the real culprit: Liberals.

Oh yeah all that crime and blight was caused by the Martians that came down and destroyed those housing projects. Bet all the fine folk who worked all their lives so that they could buy a home in the suburbs just LOVE having inner city welfare families GIVEN homes on their blocks. By the way, those housing projects sit on prime near downtown real estate, and will be turned over into lovely, expensive condo's, at great profit to those in the "club" in Chicago. Meanwhile the other neighborhoods in the City and suburbs will have to deal with the problems this is going to cause.

I sleep good at night knowing these poor folks aren't rotting away in crime-ville. Sure there will be problems, but there are always problems. I suppose warehousing them for another 20 years would be your solution eh? I prefer they had a shot at a new life, because the vast majority are Christians and deserve a second chance. From the tone of your screed, I wager you wouldn't.
