[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]People need to realize poor people don't have a right to live anywhere they want to that would be crazy and yet this is what affordable housing advocates are actually proposing

Poor people don't have a right to have a nice quality or luxury housing in expensive areas, as much as you would want to be their savior.  They either get crappy public housing or they get further out places or up and coming neighborhoods. Poor generally have fewer options, being angry about it is ok, but then you have a problem with more than just housing. Even high taxing cities that provide lots of benefits for the poor like NYC and SF aren't able to provide it all and have growing homeless populations. And if you provide luxuries for free, who will want to work?  I would love to live in a society where basics are free for everyone, people should have a right to have a roof over their head, protection against elements, crime, and basic medical care and basic food without working. But even I find it a huge stretch when so many here feel entitled to live in luxury housing in the most desirable areas that had been expensive for decades. You gotta pay to play, that's all about it.  Hoping that building shiny new towers in places where not many want to live in at the moment would half the prices in the most expensive older parts is a pipe dream. [/quote]
