No, but there is one. And God bless Dr. Carson for making a difference.

I was in Boston when the mega-billions, government-funded Big Dig was built. The unions managed to keep all the jobs for their own, multi-generational, white union membership—when the city had plenty of low-skill blacks in the neighborhood who could have used the jobs and a hand up.

The best way to shut down HUD is to shut down the need for it by putting their clients to work.

I trust Dr. Carson to continue to make a difference in this position and God bless President Trump for giving him the responsibility and talking him into taking the job.

Dr. Carson is already on the right track by making public the amount of missing money and waste at the agency. The agency has long been a slush fund for democrats to spend on their friends to get elected. If Carson’s only achievement is to get control of the budget and spend money only on what the agency has been created for, that would actually help to drain the swamp.

I agree with you. Dr. Carson was brought up in the projects. He gets it that the best program to get someone off of welfare is a job.

I'm not comfortable with the way all the profits for construction projects in OH seem to go to a small group of construction companies that line the pockets of pols. It seems that they have a myriad of ways to avoid actually hiring minorities and inner city residents.

The best way to shut down HUD is to first eliminate FHA loans.
