Joe Biden’s 2020 campaign website revealed plans for a federal takeover of local zoning laws. If enacted, the plan will force suburban jurisdictions with single-family homes and minimum lot sizes to permit construction of “affordable” high-density housing (apartments) on lots currently zoned for single-family living.
The professed purpose of the takeover is “to invest in our communities through housing by rebuilding the middle class and ensuring that this time everyone is included.” Translation: Inundate the suburbs with public housing projects.
The actual purpose of the takeover is to eviscerate Republican voting strength in the suburbs by relocating millions of government-dependent voters from America’s inner cities to suburbia.
Some elected Democrats aren’t waiting for Biden to act. Last month, California governor Gavin Newsom signed a new law abolishing local ordinances that call for minimum lot sizes. The new law allows up to four residential units (apartments) to be built on lots that previously were zoned for single-family housing. It’s likely but a matter of time before the Democrat-run state increases the number of apartments allowed per lot by a substantial amount.
A federal takeover of local zoning laws would wreak havoc nearly every middle class suburban neighborhood in America, including the one where I’ve lived for 44 years.
With 800 homes on half-acre-plus lots zoned for single-family living, the heavily forested subdivision I live in has a beautiful lake surrounded by a walking trail, greenbelt areas that provide habitat for deer and other wildlife, eight lighted tennis courts, and a 25-meter swimming pool, and a two-story clubhouse. One of the safest and most livable residential communities in suburban Atlanta, the subdivision is located in one of the highest rated school districts in Georgia. When houses are put on the market, they sell quickly.
Here’s how a federal takeover of local zoning laws could affect the community where I live. Let’s say I decide to sell my house, and that federal rezoning allows up to eight apartments per lot. Let’s say I get two offers, one from a family that wants to live in the house, the other from a real estate speculator who wants to raze the house and build an 8-unit apartment building in its place. My lot would be far more valuable to the speculator, so he makes a much higher offer, and I accept. Once the apartment building is finished, my current neighbors would suddenly be living next door to eight families instead of one.
Let’s say that in subsequent years, half of the other residents in my subdivision also sell their property to a real estate speculator. That means that at some point in the future, 400 of the 800 total lots would have an 8-unit apartment building, causing the subdivision’s population density to sharply increase, from 800 families to 3,600 families.
Due to nothing more than simple economics, the same thing would happen to surrounding subdivisions, causing property values to plummet and traffic congestion to worsen significantly. The local jurisdiction would be forced to build new schools and larger water and sewer systems to accommodate higher density living.
More people would invariably result in more crime, and a once-safe residential area would become a more challenging place to raise a family. With Democrats committed to defunding the police and confiscating guns, suburban families would be virtually defenseless against street crime and home invasions.
Initial planning for a federal takeover of local zoning laws began during the latter part of the presidency of Barack Obama, who viewed the suburbs as too safe, too clean, too livable, too white, too Republican. President Trump derailed those plans, but the plans are now poised to be resurrected under Biden’s “infrastructure” bill.
Now being negotiated in Congress, the bill allocates $213 billion for what he describes as “affordable housing.” In truth, the funding would be used to salt single-family neighborhoods in suburbia with Section 8 apartment buildings. If enacted into law, federal zoning mandates will turn peaceful suburban communities into the kind of urban war zones that exist in inner city areas of every Democrat-run city in America, no exceptions.
Biden’s “affordable housing” wrecking ball will lay waste to tens of thousands of single-family suburban neighborhoods presently inhabited by middle class homeowners of all races, ethnicities and political persuasions. More details of the planned takeover of local zoning laws are described in the New York Post article, “Biden’s ‘infrastructure’ plan wages war on the suburban dream.”
A half-century of Democrat rule has decimated the quality of life in urban America. Now that Democrats control the reins of government, they intend to do the same to the suburban neighborhood where you and your family live.
But don’t despair. For some, there’s good news. You can bet everything you own there will be no high density public housing next door to the palatial mansions owned by Obama, Biden, Pelosi and Schumer.

The civil war will start way before these are ever built.
I disagree. American “Conservatives” are more than willing to let pedophiles teach their kids gym class and gays counsel them in their teens. Destruction of where they live is no problem for them.
Yep. They accept all of the things that will prey upon their children. They are even more disgusting than the lustful demons, to me.
Civil wars require opposing factions. Name for me which faction you belong to. Whatever you name, you will find yourself standing alone.
What happens when one of your neighbors goes to pee in the yard and by the time he goes back to bed the complex next door is on fire.
THIS IS WHAT IT WILL DO.
By design too.
UN Agenda 21…now Agenda 2030 or whenever…This explanation is written by a Jew from Israel, the large, anti-semitic cadre commenting here can ignore it, those who are intelligent should read it.
Agenda 21 was primarily focused on climate change
and the environment, but the 2030 Agenda goes
far beyond that. The 2030 Agenda addresses in
far more depth economics, agriculture, education,
gender equality, healthcare and a whole host of
other issues. There are very few forms of human
activity that do not fall under the goals of the 2030
Agenda… More precisely the UN Agendas 21 and
2030 ‘sustainable development’ is a UN-led program
where individuals will be stripped of personal rights
and freedoms, cars will become scarce and the
masses will be herded into large hellish cities and
forced to live in tiny “sustainable” dorm-like apartments. (http://finalwakeupcall.info/en/2015/10/21/
agenda-21-converted-into-2030/)
I found out this plan will attempt to reduce the population from a little over 7 billion people on Earth to fewer
than half a billion

Good grief you’re an insufferable bitch. Can’t even post a link without spewing your hate.
Tut, tut….did I upset yet another anonymous? How goes it with Anglin?
Did she touch a nerve there Rabbi?
14 downers compared to two or three for your other comments. Looks like some serious vote harvesting at work. Were they mail ins or counted after midnight?
Hey there, cunt- you own any guns, yet?
Is that supposed to make sense or are you just spitting out your Pablum?
Who are you? Pablum? If you’re so smart, why don’t you tell us what exactly that means.
Just what I thought. A 2 year old mouthy punk. Hasn’t been alive long enough to read the lable on the box mommy’s feeding him from.
What, you don’t want to live in the luxurious squalor like Korben Dallas?

Oy vey! Your friendly neighborhood ‘brew will continue to enrich your life with vibrant Diversity!
Its your greatest strenfh, Cracker!
With the clot shots ability to reduce population this may be the problem that never happened. The example of 8 families on half an acre is interesting. 1/2 acre with 8 families and at least 16 cars. I don’t think that will fit from what I understand about spatial relationships. 30’x 30′ 8 stories high. 8 story elevator taking up 100 square feet. Just won’t work.
Continuing to blame ‘Democrats’ is the cringiest, cowardly-est Boom left in the Denial Arsenal.
EVERYONE knows ‘democrat’ is code for ‘jew’ so don’t get so upset…How’s Anglin today?
oopsie….Mygirl
Oh, if only this were true! Unfortunately, Janis Joplin never told them about the ‘brew in one of her rusty nails gouging a blackboard ‘songs’, so it is much to be doubted that your happy assertion is true.
I don’t know him personally and cant say for sure, but his website continues to be sharp, intelligent, and relevant in ways many lesser sites can only envy (I’m lookin’ at you, Vox Day and Z Man!)
Anglin….ok. Have you been told who to dox and hate today? Have you been given your orders and told what and how to think?
Childish vitriolic stalking like you routinely engage in couldn’t possibly be the reason anonymous posting is so popular. Could it?
Well, if someone is strong in his/her convictions and beliefs then they stand up for them. If someone is tossing shit and easily offended when called on it then posting anonymously is the way to go.
Just don’t read it.
It works a real treat for me!
Here’s a little musical number to go along with my MGM Advice:
Of course you don’t read it…odd how you comment on what you don’t read…
ever notice how caricature-like Adolf, Goebbels, and Himmler are vis-a-via their agitprop bout dem jooos?
VD may talk shit about Anglin, but he comes around to Anglin’s main thesis eventually. That has been a source of amusement for me. These days they agree about more than they disagree.
I will take your word for it. The God complex VD has finally drove me away permanently a few years back.
Hate to kill your Republican dream but they all stink.

Mexicans are also afraid to name the Jew? Who knew?
Low income nuevo Americans packed into small build back better apartments in the far flung suburbs. How’s that supposed to work transportation wise? The Biden junta is doing everything it can to drive up gas prices and make owning automobiles un affordable. When you get past the inner suburban belt public transportation is poor or nonexistent. It would require billions to build up the systems to provide adequate public transportation, which would then need more billions of subsidies to stay afloat as there won’t be a sufficient passenger base to enable the new routes to be self sufficient.
The goal is to make life really hard on those deplorable Trump supporters.
They don’t care. Preferably those people don’t work at all.
If the deplorable Trump supporters were to all go Galt the SHTF would happen overnight.
Many of those suburban soccer moms, whatever, very much voted for Biden. A huge disparity between the male/female vote. Deys be commin to yeer neighborhood. Forgot the rapper that sung that song from the 1990’s.
That’s why you can’t allow women political agency.
Can’t undo their agency at this point…absent a societal meltdown. Should that happen, females will be savaged on a scale unimaginable. Extremism begets extremism.
Their actions say they prefer us dead over enslaved.
Ummmm…UBI don’t need no stinking transportation to work. Geeeeez
If Biden’s loathsome policy should be enabled, there will be “sensitive zones” like in France and Sweden where even the police dare not enter and that are a law unto themselves. Unlike in Europe, though, the inhabitants won’t be Muslims but the most dysfunctional blacks and hispanics. And they’ll be in the suburbs where people have moved to get away from them.
The globalist masters clearly intend to push their tyranny so far as to cause a civil war, which they are confident they can win.
They must have expanded the budget for trolls. This site is living up to its name.
Why don’t you take your anonymous little self elsewheres…mmmkay?
Best of all, your newly diversified neighborhood will have plenty of public transit, for quick and low-cost access to and from the city center.
Looks as if we won’t be able to run anymore. We will have to stand.
Its proper HUD name is Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing. Are the night time skies over the rotting fruited plain glowing red…yet?
Jews are really having a hard time finding enough niggers to inflict on white populations, is the way I would frame this article.

You’d be an Idiot to rent property now so the government has to do it all, and ruining White neighborhoods is the Commies favorite game (Southerners call it Reconstruction ll). During the 1960s Civil Rights Riots, the Blacks burned down about one fourth of Jacksonville Florida (I know because that’s my home town per se). One day, they will go Congo and rape the women and burn down all those White neighborhoods HUD put them in. No problem, FEMA will set up new trailers for the Blacks.
White genocide is real
You mean the killing off of the Whites and Asians.
Once again this is part of a coordinated strategy to take down the USofA. We are watching it happen right before our eyes. The Red States are the firewall against the forces of tyranny. We need to hold the line.
Burn down or destroy the “homes” right when they start building. At night. There aren’t enough security rent-a-copfuks to stop it. Or, shoot them. You do what you gotta do to protect your homestead!
Razor wire will be a hot commodity after the projects come to the burbs.
Around 10 years ago had a project in Bowman, GA. Made a short detour on my way back home to see The Guidestones. Damn eerie place.
The good news is this won’t effect the rural communities. Bad news is, the people selling their houses for the slums to be built are coming out to the rural areas. There are developers who pay top dollar for a piece of land that is all wooded and never been developed on, usually on a town road. They subdivide the land into small plots that these suburbanites gush over and spend top dollar on. Then they build their fancy houses, put in street lights, and of course bring their politics. I have watched this happen in my rinky dink rural town. Now we have a cell tower going up and “foreigners” on the town board pushing to put a solar panel farm on town property that for years was leased by a farmer for crops.
That happened to a lot of south Florida counties, and word spread; so now rural county commissions vote no on developer’s projects. Let the liberal Blue Bellies move to South Florida (about 1,000 per day), Arizona, Colorado, etc, and Y’all take The Shot Y’hear.
Dude is dancing around the fact that it is forcing blacks into white areas
