Democrats Pass Laws to Destroy Suburbs

Original Article

Posted By: Imright, 2/13/2023 1:41:30 PM

In the name of “equity,” the Biden administration and state Democrats have declared war on the suburbs: The Biden administration and Democrats in New York, Connecticut and other states are fighting local zoning laws in order to build high-rise apartment buildings with “affordable” units in tree-lined, single-family neighborhoods. All in the name of equity, meaning everyone can live in a tranquil suburb, whether they’ve earned the money to pay for it or not. The Biden administration announced Jan. 19 that it will require all towns across the U.S. to submit “Equity Plans” showing how they will make it possible for low-income people to live there

The reasons that suburbs are tranquil is because people who make suburbs not tranquil don't live there.

Get back to us when the government puts up low income housing in Atherton, California or Kalorama in DC. And let’s not forget Martha’s Vineyard and Cape Cod.

Some pushback is going to come from the democrats who live in the 'burbs. They never do as they want others to do and are very strong NIMBYers, as we saw in Martha's Vineyard last year. As far as "Equity Plans," get an education, a good job, save your money and anyone can live in the 'burbs.

This is about education and K thru 12 public schools. And how it isn't "fair" that middle class suburbanites can simply move away and pay taxes solely for the benefit of their own children alone.

This is another of the Left's ...ah... dreams. For them a dream is part of the entire compulsion to bring about the communist revolution, i.e., world communism, i.e., new world order. Obama was trying to cram this demolishment of the suburbs, too. The "Middle Class" emerges out of the suburbs; they are the backbone of the country; they are the core of our military at its greatest. Notice how everything they do is authoritarian in nature, totalitarian in scope. It doesn't matter is that's what "the people" want. THEY want and demand it. This is the thing to remember: the Dem/Left never, ever give up. They will take a "strategic pause", but they are fiercely teleological in their politics. They don't, however, take steps backward. They push until the Repubs back down, give in, palliate, or offer something --as Rush (i attribute it to Rush) put it-- Democrat lite. (I sure miss Rush)

FTA: “Democrats are locusts.” Apt description. They cannot bear the fact that we exist. Therefore, we must be punished for having the audacity to believe that it is our God given right to live a life free of an oppressive government breathing down our necks and making life miserable. Notice that most suburban communities are diverse and our neighbors regardless of color or creed do not want apartments and public housing in their communities either. As our little village has grown so have the number of liberal elites and they are very active in local politics. We have had this same issue come up and it has been rejected but, once again, it has reared its ugly head and it looks like they may get their way. The left never stops pushing, however, we have to be just as tenacious. We cannot ignore them or fail to be engaged because they will not go away. They will try and wear us down. I just can't for the life of me understand why they are so utterly destructive. They are a miserable lot and the only thing that gives them any pleasure is the power to make others miserable.

I would hope that someone is keeping a running chronology of all the orders and policies promoted by this administration that is transforming our country from being "the land of the free and the home of the brave" into the land of the unrecognizable (which would, of course, include all the executive orders immediately issued by them to cancel President Trump's efforts to benefit the lives of all races, creeds and colors.) Trump always tried to unite, not divide.

The plan to "make it possible for low-income people to live there" has already been written. Once you spoil the landscape with one high rise and it's accompanying drug culture and trashy welfare-dependent people, anybody who is hard-working and peace-loving moves out and the entire neighborhood gets swallowed up.

Beware of bureaucratic buzzword "equity." It is not a benign word to be used in place of "equality." It is a malicious word that not only allows, but requires government manipulation to produce OUTCOMES that recipients have not earned, in order to benefit dictatorial government bureaucrats. It is a redistribution of wealth that the most corrupt politicians are trying to shove down middle America's throat. This quick and dirty scheme to destroy suburbs is an especially nasty attack on middle America, because few people who live there, regardless of race, have had that lifestyle handed to them. Just as this administration is trying to "remake" the United States by importing poverty, crime, and drugs while raising taxes on Americans, it has scheduled American suburbs for a "remake" as well. ALL WITHOUT PERMISSION FROM THE AMERICAN PEOPLE. This top down, dictatorial form of government deliberately robs Americans of the wealth they worked for. Americans feel poorer because they ARE poorer. And this administration is just getting started.

The wonder of a federal system means that all of the blue states can start this plan today and, if it turns out great (which it won't), all of the other states can choose to adopt it. However, when all of the people in the tranquil, blue suburbs decide to move to Florida or Texas, they may have to make some changes -- maybe even some demolition. Just don't ask the other states to pay for their short-sighted mistakes.

We have the worst border crisis in history, and the Biden administration insists that our southern border is secure. This disconnect between the narrative and reality is the reason why Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas is currently facing potential impeachment. Yet, after watching his interview with CNN’s Chris Wallace, it all makes sense. “Our goal is to achieve operational control of the border, to do everything that we can to support our personnel with the resources, the technology, the policies that really advance the security of the border, and do not come at the cost of the values of our country,” Mayorkas told Wallace.

Two recent news stories converge into one urgent plea. One is the alarming and well-covered story of the Chinese spy balloon. The other: At 23 Baltimore public schools (out of 150), zero students tested proficient in math. That includes 10 high schools. Not surprisingly, this story received far less coverage, including none in The New York Times. Also ignored was the follow-up news: 77% of Baltimore high-school students read only at elementary-school grade levels. Ignored too was the copy-cat story for Chicago: that of 649 Windy City public schools, 22 have zero students grade-level proficient in reading, and 33 have zero grade-level proficient in math.

A priceless treasure hoard buried by a family fleeing the Second World War has been found 80 years later by the next generation. The Glazewski family buried their silver and fled their estate in eastern Poland in September 1939 after hearing that the Russians were invading. Only Adam, the head of the family, stayed behind to face the Russians, who threw him off his land, and nearly executed him before his staff intervened. Faced with a life under Soviet rule, his four sons never returned to their home near Lviv - formerly part of Poland, today part of Ukraine - and settled around the world.

Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg is coming under fire over disasters ranging from the airlines’ holiday meltdown to the train wreck that has spilled chemicals in Ohio — and critics are blaming his cozy ties with the industries he’s supposed to regulate. Outrage over US air chaos spilled into President Biden’s State of the Union Address earlier this month. The commander-in-chief vowed to crack down on excessive fees, saying “airlines can’t treat your child like a piece of baggage” and demanded that “airlines show you the full ticket price upfront and refund your money if your flight is canceled or delayed.”

The average person can’t describe the daily responsibilities of the secretary of transportation or even name the figure who holds that position — until our transportation infrastructure fails, that is. As far as cushy political appointments go, it’s on the thankless end of the spectrum. At least that was the case before Pete Buttigieg ascended to the role in 2021. Now the secretary of transportation is both a political celebrity and someone immune to meaningful criticism over our country’s transportation failures — and there have been many.Though the left rarely misses an opportunity to announce that “the adults are back in charge,” Buttigieg’s failures suggest otherwise.
