i'll tell you why this is all but impossible, and it's the same reason why you couldn't "solve" the OWS stuff

there is no set of clear, tactile issues that can be displayed and no clear goal of the BLM movement to communicate

what BLM wants is awareness of their movement through "any means necessary". that is their goal. same with OWS (bot Soros-funded "movements")

Because they get government money to include those. They tried it here but they lost more on the value of the "high end" stuff than they made up with the government money

Racial or economic? And by economic I mean that wealthier people prefer not to live around poor people.


this will always take precedence

not only from the desire of the rich to live apart from the trash, but also the desire of the trash to live apart from the rich

the real battleground is the middle third

Maybe. Los Angeles had a law requiring that low income be included but a developer sued and won. I know apartments get federal money but I mean for sale units. Do they get money too?

Not so much in Los Angeles. Pretty much every new development has a percentage set aside for low income.



New Orleans tried this 55 or so years ago... it hasn't worked out so well.

Obama was uniquely positioned to do it, being half-white and all. Could've downplayed the whole thing and said he wasn't elected for being half-black or elected in spite of it and that he was simply elected because more Americans felt he was the best man for the job. But instead he race hustled for the last seven years.


This is 100% true.
It truly amazes me how a country who elects a black man as president becomes more racially polarized than almost any other time in it's history. Obama has done more to inflame racial tensions than any other single person in our history. And he he thrilled at his results.
