AFFIRMATIVELY FURTHERING FAIR HOUSING

Government mandated racial diversity coming to your neighborhood courtesy of your Savior in Chief using your tax dollars to ease the plight of former slaves by providing them housing they can’t afford, but you can. You too can now live next to Section 8 neighbors like Admin in Wildwood. Obama is the gift that keeps on giving. He’s got two years left and he will use executive orders to implement his left wing agenda while appeasing the Republicans with more war. Wait until the nasty parts of Obamacare kick in during 2015.

Free To Choose? Obama Administration Likely To Impose “Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing” Regulation After Midterm Elections

The midterm elections are on Tuesday, November 4th. After the elections, the Obama Administration is expected to operationalize the “Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing” regulation in December.

What is the proposed “Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing” regulation?

According to the New York Post,

After a delay, the administration’s final “Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing” regulation is now expected to be announced in December. Originally scheduled for finalization in October, the new Housing and Urban Development Department rules will force all cities and suburbs to accept subsidized housing in the name of racial diversity, superceding all local zoning ordinances.

The Orwellian-sounding regulation would force some 1,200 municipalities to redraw zoning maps to racially diversify suburban neighborhoods.

Under the scheme, HUD plans to map every US neighborhood by race and publish “geospatial data” pinpointing racial imbalances. Areas deemed overly segregated will be forced to change their zoning laws to allow construction of subsidized and other affordable housing to bring more low-income minorities into “white suburbs.” HUD’s maps will be used to select affordable housing sites.

It’s part of the administration’s ambitious agenda to eliminate “racial segregation,” ZIP code by ZIP code, block by block, through the systematic dismantling of allegedly “exclusionary” building ordinances. In effect, federal bureaucrats will have the power to rezone your neighborhood.

Some cities are already complaining about the new regulation.

Here is how it will work. HUD and it’s agents will create racial maps and then “encourage” affordable housing construction in non-integrated neighborhoods.

hudracemap

The cost if a municipality doesn’t comply? Loss of HUD block grant funding. Or worse.

School busing was a previous attempt at “equality” of education, but that venture failed badly and was abandoned. So now HUD wants to bus people to your neighborhood … permanently.

Selective Enforcement

Of course, the HUD maps of racial divergence will not be applied equally. Does anyone believe that Democrat Nancy Pelosi will allow affordable housing projects in her swank San Francisco neighborhood? Will billionaires in the San Francisco Bay Area from Google, Apple, etc., allow affordable housing projects in Portola Valley, Los Altos Hills, etc? Will wealthy horse owners in Northern Virginia allow affordable housing projects plopped in the middle of their farms? Not likely.

This is massive Federal overreach and negates “voting with your feet.” That is, if you choose to move away from bad schools, crime, etc., the Federal government will negate your freedom of choice and plop the same problems in your new neighborhood.

And I doubt if President Obama will allow an affordable housing project next to whatever swank golf course he decides to move to after he leaves office.

No, the “Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing” Regulation is another attack on the middle class.

This new regulation comes from HUD, the same people that brought us “The National Homeownership Strategy: Partners in the American Dream” under President Bill Clinton that turned out to be a nightmare for millions of American households.

Here is Nobel Laureate Milton Friedman discussing freedom of choice versus government control of markets.

For 20 years, I have maintained a long list of government agencies that i believe urgently need to be sunset, and HUD is at the top of the list. Even the loathesome HEW hasn’t done as much damage to our cities as HUD.

There’s nothing new about any of the policies you are talking about here. The Section 8 program started wrecking beautiful, intact urban neighborhoods in the 1970s, and doubled down on the damage in the 80s and onward as it was noted that many urban neighborhoods remained “segregated” in spite of “fair housing” laws, and, in the 90s, the rule that no landlord may refuse a tenant because the source of the rent money is Section 8.

If you live in a neighborhood of apartments, you are vulnerable, no matter how swank the buildings are. A very swank old building in St Louis went Section 8 at the inception of the program in the early 70s, and the ruin of the beautiful old place precipitated the slumification of the entire surrounding neighborhood. Every beautiful urban neighborhood in the country is vulnerable, especially if it has a lot of multifamily. Your only recourse is to convert to condo, and write by-laws that prohibit rentals.

The only people immune are people who live in expensive SF homes in enclaves of same, which are priced far above Section 8 thresholds, like Nancy. Just as so many rich liberals who advocated bussing to achieve integration never subjected their own kids to it because they sent them to expensive private schools, these people are sheltered from the consequences of the policies that trash everyone else’s neighborhoods.. . .. until the day comes when the blight creeps right up to the gates of their cushy, insulated enclaves.

Here in broward county (ft. lauderdale) Florida, it’s even worse. They have already built the apartments for our new 100,000 haitians that Obama just fast tracked, and we are just awaiting delivery. I have been pointing out to anyone who will listen, ‘who do you think they are building these for?’ We haven’t had a surge in employment that might increase demand. Now we know.

Just yet another piece in the increasingly blatant, impossible-to-ignore war against the middle class.

I’m thinking that most of us near the Canadian border still don’t have that much to worry about.

But, regardless, FUCK YOU HUD.

Star – Obama is Bringing 100,000 Haitians Into the U.S. Without Visas, Then He’ll Give Them Free Stuff Paid For By You!

[imgcomment image[/img]

President Obama is allowing 100,000 Haitians into our country without visas as part of the fundamental transformation of America that he promised.

Sen. Chuck Grassley of Iowa said the administration’s Haitian Family Reunification Parole Program — which will allow thousands of Haitians awaiting a U.S. visa to enter the country and legally apply for work permits — is “an irresponsible overreach of the executive branch’s authority.”

“Which countries are next on President Obama’s list?” Mr. Grassley said. “Will there by medical screenings before entry? Will work permits be granted automatically? How will this affect American workers?”

U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services, the branch of the Department of Homeland Security that handles immigration benefits cases, announced Friday the program to unite Haitians already living in the U.S. with family members abroad will ramp up in 2015.

At that time the State Department’s National Visa Center will begin notifying families who may be eligible to take part in the program. Those immigrants will allowed to apply for work permits while waiting for issuance of their permanent visas.

The agency said the program will expedite “safe, legal and orderly migration.”

“The rebuilding and development of a safe and economically strong Haiti is a priority for the United States. The Haitian Family Reunification Parole program promotes a fundamental underlying goal of our immigration system — family reunification,” said Deputy Secretary of Homeland Security Alejandro Mayorkas. “It also supports broader U.S. goals for Haiti’s reconstruction and development by providing the opportunity for certain eligible Haitians to safely and legally immigrate sooner to the United States.”

There is only one black dude in my entire county. He is a part timer, ie not a year round resident. Nice guy actually. We are all happy to have him visit. Visit. And leave. Some weeks the crime report in the paper is blank. Our jail has only 6 cells, and is the oldest functioning jail in the state, possibly the nation. Wonder if there is a connection to be made here….hmmm.

“Largest but least populated county in kunstlers home state” —— John the bruce

Well, that’s a tough clue.

The largest county is Saint Lawrence. The least populated is Hamilton. And the two counties share a border.

But, thanks. I don’t want to move to New York … even though you live in a gorgeous area. I need a blue state and a WARM state.

John Lives in NEW YORK?!?!

NY is fucking GROUND ZERO for Zombies!

[imgcomment image?w=401&h=199[/img]

You got Proto-Zombies in NYC, Albany, Buffalo, & Schenectady, not to mention other Bicycle Range Zombies coming in from Hartford CT, Manchester NH, Burlington VT…

Here’s John a week after TSHTF and the Zombies come streaming up the NYS Thruway on their Schwinn’s consuming McMansion Dwellers for sustenance on their way to the dirt roads Upstate…

Heard about HUD’s evil plot some time ago… and now they’re ready to shove it down everyone’s throats.

EXCELLENT!!

Aside from the maniacal glee I feel – all those “tolerant” fucksticks are finally going to have their wonderful “Die-ver-shitty” forced on them, this could be the final straw… things might get right lively, finally. Heh…

Ahhh, I can see it now. Professor Fuckstick the Marxist Asshole at the local University lives in his nice white ‘burb and spends his days teaching your kids how wonderful it will be when everyone lives in some multi-culti polyglot gloopy brown mess… and he steps outside his nice old house and sees dead chickens and goats in the street, neatly beheaded, blood everywhere… courtesy of his new Haitian neighbors next door… BAHH HAAH HAAH!

Think I’m joking about the beheaded animal thing? Heh… heard tell that Noo Yawk Shitty – and other major cities – have groups of city workers dedicated to doing nothing but driving around Haitian neighborhoods, collecting up the dead carcasses of chickens and goats they’ve “sacrificed” to whatever Hoo Doo gods they worship in their Ooga Booga “religion”… of course, making them stop chopping the heads off of animals because they have some barbaric belief system would be ‘insensitive’…

It’s almost like they want another civil war… of course, the negroes declared war on whites back in the 1960’s, but we ignored them. Maybe now we’ll wake the fuck up…

Meanwhile, I would invest in one of these if you haven’t already…

Now come join me
All the neighbors share the same values, and a beer too
With our guns and excavators, we can knock the zombies down, and burry them deep
I am told theres quite a few bodies burried up here already from the rum runners coming out of canadaduring the prohibition era.
ANd the nys thruway wont get you anywhere near here.
Zombies would need to walk the snowmobile trails up into these mountains.
Now figure out which city you are coming from to get to me.
Caveat…my opinion of a city may be smaller than what you are used to.

Thanks. What’s your annual snowfall? If it’s more than 3 inches, that’s too much!!

And I meant to say I need a RED state. Not that it would be much better than a Blue State …. it’s just that I’m sick and tired of living amongst a sea of Libtardfuks! They are fuckin’ INSUFFERABLE.
