Too true

Bizarre huh?

You know the "bailout" should never have been given to those rich elite NWO bastards. They should have given it to reconstruction and getting more americans cheaper homes and work on getting more jobs not just handing out cash to the richest 1%.

ffjjkkii: Why not build the same amount of social housing then? Why shove out the underprivileged? Are they not an integral part of the community rather than the developers looking for cheap real estate? Why not, in wake of the crisis, pass a city law that all developments over 100 units MUST have 10% low-rent-geared-to-income units in this city? What about supporting some co-ops? There are numerous solutions instead of the same old tired gentrification excuses.

Worn down, dilapidated and flood ruined homes. It's easy to walk around outside of the buildings and say that they look fine, but you should also realize that silt has transfered itself to the bottom 1/8 of every ground room floor and after three years mold and rot has taken most of the rest. I'm not denying gentrification, it occurs everywhere where people get in the way of progress, but many people view the current situation in New Orleans as a way to make it a better place than it was before.

ffjjkkii: Sorry, not buying. The community housing projects are people's *homes*. It is their *community*. Breaking up a community and packing it off elsewhere to appease development is gentrification no matter how the developers want to sell it. It's probably going to be moot now, anyway. The banks will not be throwing money at the developers/speculators. There's already too many empty units no one can afford to rent. The condo boom is bust.

Thank You very much Al-Jazeera for showing the real USA, now there are many Americasn who will see these videos and say these are baised, and that it's not really like this and that these issues don't affect them becuase they are not black. Or Brown, or muslim, o Hispanics, This is the real USA world. THis is the real USA. It's nothign like that you see in Hollywood films, or on CNN or Fox news.

If america doesn't switch over to socialism. It's going to be the world's largest thirld world country.

i don't understand why this is some kind of outrage. property values go up and so does rent. If you can't keep up with it then you have to move.
