I defy anyone of them to show me data refuting the fact that low income housing brings in more crime to an area. And the reason they become slums is because when you give something to someone who never had to work for it they don't respect it. They don't realize and understand the value of it.
That is the one thing liberals will never understand. Money does not solve money problems. Ever. You can't give those who are takers enough.
I watched a short video with Charlemagne (SP?) interviewing some rapper called T. I.? Anyway, this rapper thinks we should give all people of color who are descendants of slaves (see how he cut out the Asians and Latinos there?) $1MM for 'reparations.' When pressed about it and asked if that was what he thought would solve the problem, the rapper said "it's a start." See, it wouldn't matter how much you gave, it would NEVER be enough. He sounded like a separatist. He felt like the blacks should be given their own areas, the $1MM, and then businesses. He said for every dollar they spent outside of their own, they lost that dollar they could have used.
It was a pretty disgusting video.
