You should be glad that the other jurisdictions don't "share the burden," giving Alexandria the opportunity to import poor people from surrounding areas so you rich liberals can feel self-righteous about all the "good" you're doing by putting lazy folks comfortably on the dole and sapping any incentive they might have had to escape the never-ending cycle of government dependence.

As an Alexandrian who pays to support all these loafers, I cringed to see them all lined up at GW middle school when Alexandria reopened the public housing waitlist last month.  It was strange to see how few of these "poor" people arrrived on foot/by public transit.  The parking lot was full of cars (nice cars, too), lots with DC and Maryland plates.

But what do you expect when a city spends millions building brand new, beatiful public housing units in the heart of Old Town (one of the most desirable neighborhoods in the region), and then lets anyone sign up to move in--even if they aren't Alexandria residents.  When you read about former DC residents who have moved to public housing complexes in Alexandria for a better life, I'm sure it warms your heart.  More human guinea pigs to be socially engineered by our coterie of bureacrats at City Hall and ACPS.  More reliable Democrat voters to keep our city council majority in place!  More criminals to steal packages off our porches, break into our cars, urinate in our alleys, and commit occasional violent crimes, too!  Win-win-win!

I could not agree more with this post. As an Alexandria City tax payer it is so frustrating to watch this happen in my community.
