A beautiful, wide open space. Now, the fields have been graded, a road is being constructed between the two fields, and they are planning on building several thousand housing units, you know that new form of high density housing, three story apartments. By law, 1/3 of the housing units must be low income/minority housing. Our home value has appreciated by 50% in the two years we have lived here. But, our next door neighbor is selling, the neighbor at the end of our little development recently sold. And two other houses on our street are for sale. The wise are getting out now. They are going to turn our little, out of the way American paradise into a ghetto, where broken bottles liter the streets, the walls covered in graffiti, loud booming violent music is the background hum, while property crime soars, and violent crime makes its first appearance in our community. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 66594553 Trump tells voters who live in suburbs they ‘will no longer be bothered’ by low-income housing “I am happy to inform all of the people living their Suburban Lifestyle Dream that you will no longer be bothered or financially hurt by having low income housing built in your neighborhood," Trump tweeted Wednesday. “Your housing prices will go up based on the market, and crime will go down. I have rescinded the Obama-Biden AFFH Rule. Enjoy!” [link to www.foxnews.com (secure)] . INFJ; We are the protectors. |

Low property tax and housing costs are the only saving grace this state has. Quoting: LividCoffeeDrinker Ok, I gotta ask. Where in Ill-annoy are you that you consider property taxes low and housing affordable? I may be your new neighbor. There are lots of small towns in Illinois. I used to live in Machesny Park and Loves Park, both north of Rockford. They used to have low taxes, not sure about the last 10 years. I still have family in the area, so I assume it is still low enough to live there. |

Yes that is the plan. Not so much your house (yet) but the XX% of your neighbor's houses that go under in the next crash will be section 8 inner city relocates. Suburbs in the area of the big cities will get real "diverse" real fast like forced bussing. That was one of the handful of things Trump did that was good was striking down that Obama initiated plan but now Biden will certainly reinstate it in the first few months what a mess. It will be white flight further and further out into the country. ALL part of Agenda 21 now Agenda 2030 of the UN Relocate inner city poor to suburbs - make sure Dems never lose again just by outnumbering in each voting district without even redistricting Change population density so suburbs are stacked and packed apartment buildings REGARDLESS of local zoning laws - stick them right in there next to elderly that started the neighborhoods and take up resources they paid and paid for for decades |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 71077975 Exactly, this is how they force people out of their homes. They say it is to help the "poor". Bunch of psychopathic pathological liars. In Thailand you could have a traditional thai house next to a skyscraper simply because the "poor" didn't have to pay this communist tax. No shock that the Thai "Democrat" (coincidence?) party was always trying to pass the "imminent domain" law and Property tax law. Not sure if Thailand was able to hold out. The last time I went back all the Cool central Thai neighborhoods were gone and it was all skyscrapers. literally like 30 new ones from 2010 to 2015 Crazy times. Screw this communists. |

It's the Federal Income Tax that was never truthfully ratified, and that is un-Constitutional. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 79683260 They need a property tax revolt. They frequently do work, if enough people and businesses sign on. We need a goddamn revolution Nothing will ever change until the tyrants are eliminated. There's no compromising with them. You can't just vote them out because they've infested every echelon of government. The only way you can deal with a tyrant is to kill them and There's many thousands of them. |
