DIVERSIFYING SUBURBS
by
Paul Sperry
Obama's housing chief plans this fall to implement a new
rule giving Section 8 welfare recipients enough money to afford rent wherever
they choose, with the goal of driving them
into affluent suburbs. Section 8 tenants who choose to stay in the city
will lose subsidies.
The regime is gearing up for a massive settlement of urban
poor - more than 350,000 initially, followed by as many of the rest of the 2.2
million Section 8 tenants as they can push out of cities - all to end what the
left calls "American apartheid."
If landlords fight the massive social experiment to racially
and economically - not to mention politically - integrate the suburbs - they'll
be sued for discrimination. And if counties and municipalities fight it,
they'll lose millions in federal funding.
Obama is showing his radical roots in his final days of
office. But if you think this is bad, just wait. His most dangerous days are
yet to come.
Paul Sperry is a former Washington bureau chief for Investor's Business Daily and author of the 'Great
American Bank Robbery,' which exposes
the racial politics behind the mortgage bust.
