Freedom and liberty in America are dying rapidly. The
American dream will be dead within a decade, posted by Jim Richter, Fayette
County GA GOP, 6/11/16
How is this possible? The left is using big government to
strangle America and real Americans. They are doing their best to use big
government to destroy the middle class. And unfortunately, for the most part,
the Republican Party is sitting there, just drooling while all of this happens.
From the Daily Caller:
In its final months, the Obama administration has set up
a strategy to bring inner city living to the suburbs by deploying three federal
agencies to dictate to states and local communities how to set up schools,
housing and mass transit. It’s all part of a federal push to reduce economic
and racial segregation in favor of diversity.
The Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD)
expanded the reach of its Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing (AFFH) rule to
two other federal agencies: the Department of Transportation and the Department
of Education.
AFFH is a rule established by HUD last year that requires
any nationwide locality that receives block grant funding from the agency to
rezone neighborhoods based on income and racial prerequisites. It’s based on
the 40-year-old Fair Housing Act.
In a joint letter released at the beginning of the week,
the secretaries of the three agencies called on local leaders to use the AFFH
rule as a vehicle to push state and local officials to abide by federal
recommendations in planning to develop residential, commercial and school
sites.
“We recognize that a growing body of research supports
the benefits of socioeconomic and racial diversity in schools and communities,
and that such diversity can help establish access points for opportunity and
mobility,” HUD Secretary Julián Castro, Education Secretary John King and
Transportation Secretary Anthony Foxx wrote. “We also recognize that children
raised in concentrated poverty or in communities segregated by socioeconomic
status or race or ethnicity have significantly lower social and economic
mobility than those growing up in integrated communities.
“Rising economic segregation means that an increasing
number of low-income households are located in distressed neighborhoods where
they face challenges such as failing schools, high rates of crime, and
inadequate access to services and jobs, making it harder for individuals and
families to escape poverty,” the trio wrote.
Translation, the Obama Regime wants to destroy the middle
class by importing crime into nice neighborhoods. Most Americans’ single
largest investment is their house. Most Americans aspire to home ownership. And
one of the key factors for the value of homes is nice, safe neighborhoods.
Yet what happens when we have these nice middle class
neighborhoods that are suddenly forced to have public housing right in their
midst? There is a reason why people don’t voluntarily live in the ghettos.
This is a full-fledged assault on the sovereignty of
individual states as well as an attempt to simply destroy the middle class. The
state legislatures in red states should start rejecting all federal funds that
come with these conditions. Let the blue states go to hell.
Oh, and let’s not forget that a few conservatives tried
to kill AFFH and the GOP establishment blocked them from killing this insanity.

We
want to control our own schools, transportation and zoning to protect our
property values. Obama wants to
obliterate our property values along with our ability to support
ourselves. Education, Healthcare and Government
are unaffordable. Unconstitutional
federal departments, agencies and programs need to be closed. The US needs to quit the UN to protect our
sovereignty.
