Screw working to get ahead in life and have things better than those who fail to do for themselves. Ole Mitch wants everyone to have a participation trophy. Now your seemingly school district will get infiltrated with the same type of folks that are bringing down the other schools/neighborhoods.

quote:

Known as an Assessment of Fair Housing, New Orleans is the first city in the country to complete the document, which is now required of all cities that receive funding from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development. The Greater New Orleans Fair Housing Action Center has been calling for such a report for years to address systemic problems in housing, particularly for people with low incomes.


quote:

A key element of the plan is a commitment to spread out the number of people using Section 8 housing vouchers in areas currently clustered around the city. Ellen Lee, director of housing policy for Mayor Mitch Landrieu, said those efforts will likely include making vouchers more responsive to housing prices in certain neighborhoods, allowing for a higher rent in more expensive neighborhoods and lowering voucher values for neighborhoods with cheaper rents.


quote:

"By extending affordability periods or investing in community land trusts ... those are ways we can create affordability so residents who are able to take advantage of lower rents can remain in those apartments for a longer period of time," she said


quote:

Hayne Rainey, a spokesman for Mayor Mitch Landrieu, said the plan also builds on the mayor's efforts to make housing a top priority in his administration


Weeeeeeeeeee, lets make all neighborhoods dangerous!!!

It's New Orleans. Aren't the poors already nice-neighborhood adjacent?

This results from an Obama appointee dominated HUD. There is absolutely zero legal authority for HUD to be able to do this. Hillary will keep this program intact.

Whats funny to me is that to most outsiders New Orleans feels like its far more integrated than most other big cities in the South.

The neighborhoods are like a checkerboard I feel like with good v. bad.

For instance in Atlanta, Nashville, Charleston, (even Jackson), Memphis, etc. the white areas are completely shut off from the largely black or lower income areas.


ETA:

Maybe its just how it "feels" though and isn't a reality.

Ie make the vouchers more valuable.

Assuming there is a finite amount of money, this means less people on assistance. But who am I kidding.

What's the point of working hard to be able to afford to live in a nice area if the government is just going to make the poors your next door neighbor? I feel like I'm taking fricking crazy pills. Is this what we have come to?? Social engineering?

So glad I moved out of NOLA. I love the city, but they make it so hard for people with jobs and families to live there.

The ironic thing is that without HUD and all this Section 8 BS, NOLA would be much more affordable to people who actually work for a living and try to better themselves.

While creating "affordable" (subsidized) housing for the "working class" (they don't actually work), they are decreasing the housing stock and driving up overall rent throughout the city.

HUD should be disbanded on the federal level.
