A relative used to live in the projects in South Boston. I can still smell the urine. Why do people piss in the halls of the housing project where they live? Because when you give something to people for free, they don't treat it as well as they would have had they earned it. Four-hundred miles south of Old Colony, denizens of public housing abuse the system in ways far more beneficial to themselves than transforming stairwells into urinals.
In Fairfax, Virginia, an expensive county where I lived off-and-on for several years in the mid-1990s when traffic lights, strip malls, and housing developments sprung up every time I turned my head, numerous families raking in six-figure incomes live in public housing. Note: I got all of the drawbacks and none of the perks of Section 8/Project living during my time in Fairfax County. Intergender fistfights, overly gregarious cockroaches, and a one-month sojourn in a townhouse packed with an extended non-English speaking family that had all the comforts of a rush-hour train are among my memories. Neither Uncle Sam nor Uncle Fairfax subsidized me, but I never paid more than $400 rent a month. You get what you pay for--unless you live in Section 8 or the projects, in which case you get what you don't pay for.
Do you like to pay rent for people earning more money than you do? Come to think of it, paying rent for people who earn less money than you do is a drag, too, isn't it? The Washington Post points out that one family's annual income living in Fairfax County's public housing is $216,000! Amazingly, this is not against the rules. Fairfax County board of supervisors chairman Gerald E. Connolly nevertheless explains, "Clearly this housing was not designed for that." And that's just it--government programs rarely pan out as designed.
Wait a minute, by this are you saying that a government run health care system might not work?
Wasn’t this the vision of FDR’s New Deal and compounded by LBJ’s Great Society?
Next up: HRC’s Cradle to Grave Nanny State. If we allow it.
Wait a minute, isn't Daniel J. Flynn JUST AN INTELLECTUAL MORON?
I don't know.
I guess I should read his fair balanced books to inform myself.
Riiiiiight
wing!!
WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
Investigate 911
Investigate getting a funtional brain. Go away, you johnny-one-note troll.
BTW, I had a girlfriend who lived in the Old Colony. A lovely Irish/Lithuanian lass. But when I came to visit, there were always half in the bag teenagers lining up and pi$$ing in the stair wells. How does this make sense when you live in the same building?
Did you know that th 911 commission reprort does not discuss the WTC7 collapse? Talk about getting a functional brain... geesh
"Pull it"
Sorry for the grammatical errors... typos
Tell us more about WTC7. This is fascinating stuff.
Follow the URL and find out about WTC7. It's a long film, about an hour and a half, but the WTC7 stuff comes in at the end...
And less than 1% of American's know about that..
Strange no?
No.
An hour and a half? Should only take a few minutes to smell out the bull$h!t.

Wake up from you 911 induced slumbers. Thats all I'm saying. Our Country appears to have been hijacked
http://www.plaguepuppy.net/public_html/video%20archive/
Operation Tripod?! Sounds like something from the next Austen Powers flick.
Yes, it's true that our country has been hijacked. It's been hijacked by f'ing crazy leftist a-holes.
Urine Breath/Johnny/Heha...,
Are you going to make an actual argument or just post some links and spout your brain jizz? Same old Heha, except this time with urine breath. Crack addled brain.
The only one in a slumber is you. Wake up, Buckshot!
This is all out in the public domain, You can't make this stuff up. You have to do the research yourselves because "cnnnbbccbs" won't tell you. Instead of calling me names and and depicting me as a leftist lunatic (FUKN Pathetic), why don't you debate me on the SUBJECT MATTER of these important issues. Prove me wrong. Better Yet, why should I blindly believe the "official 911 consiracy theory?" just because that is what the MSM and administration pushes down our throats?.. Can you point to me some smoking gun information on the official story? Oh yeah, they found on of the hijackers passports in perfect condition among the ground zero debris! Geesh, thats great, what a "lucky" find! What is so wrong with you people to think that criminal elements in our government would never do anything that is 100% benevolent to the masses; or moreover, that criminal elements even exist?
Absolutely everything in this country is based around 911 now... domestic and foreign policy, security, new laws, degradation of the bill of rights, etc etc ets.
GWB- "Let Us Never Tolerate Outrageous Conspiracy Theories Surrounding the Events of 911" (Plausible Deniability much)
"Either you're with us or you're with the terrorists"
Dissent and scrutiny are patriotic my hawkish friends.
Two more thoughts revovling 911: Oscam's Razor and the bigger the lie, the more people that will believe it.
The tribunals will come my friends...
Debate the issues, think and don't smear the messenger
Oh, why would you even assume I am a leftist?
Republicans and democrats nowadays are two sides of the same damn coin.
One more thing, to call me a leftist in such a tone, leads me to believe that you believe you situate on the "right." As a conservative then, why can't we conserve and honor the constitution and treat it more than "just a piece of paper" GWB. The "Patriot Act" and the like that many hawkish republicans support nowadays suspend and trump many amendments of our great Constitution. Classic right-wingers hold in high regard, things like National Soveriegnty, non-interventionalist foreign policy, against nation building, and keeping the government small and in check as much as possible. Bottom line is don't play the right/left game because honestly, its stupid and juvenile; and question everything they feed you. Especially a mega-event that changed the nature of government and society.
Dude, we don't care.
Urine Breath,
Debate? You haven't made an actual argument on anything. You're act has grown dull and tiresome. What does 911 have to do with public housing anyway?
You're pathetic.
You don't care that 911 was an inside job? Good God Man! Jesus H. Christ, nice excuse.
Apathy will lead to your enslavement
The only enslavement that will be realized is if we can't keep Hitlery Rotten Clinton from making it the White House.
And I'm sure she was complicit in the first attack on the WTC in 93'. Another inside job, I suspect.
"Jesus H. Christ, nice excuse."
What excuse was made?
Are you on drugs, or something?
Are the voices becoming too much to bear?
Are you going to tell us next that freedom is slavery?
I'm having alot of fun with you, what with you being an insane idiot and all.
Insane is right AM. I still can't believe these tin foil hatted nuts are out there. I run into one about every few months at a cocktail party and when they start I just walk away. Way I look at it is that the crazy train is leaving the station and I don't want to be on it.
You guys have not presented your case for the official 911 conspiracy theory?????????????????????????????????????????? Hillary Clinton is scum, I agree. She is a member of the CFR, an organisation which aims at destryoying national soveriegnty and pushing for a one world government. Cheney was director for years. Vote Ron Paul... no strings attached. "Legalize the Constitution"
You guys are scared aren't you? The fact of the matter is, is that there is no hard evidence for the claims you endorse. Prove me wrong and quit calling me names, geesh
"The fact of the matter is, is that there is no hard evidence for the claims you endorse."
What claims? You're manufacturing excuses and claims that no one has made. No one wants to engage in your nonsensical debate. The only reason I'm wasting my time on you is it gives me a quick break from the project I'm working on.
BTW, what's with all the question marks? You were making a statement, not asking a question. I would think a guy with a degree in English would know the proper use of punctuation.
Shoo, shoo, scat troll! Get out from underneath my bridge. Be gone with your worthless hide.
You know, if you had half of the coincidences and discrepencies that occured on 911 in any other murder case, you can bet that there would have been a damn good investigation leading to a conviction... too much to ignore.. inside job
BTW, I don't have a degree in English (where did you pull that one out of)? Biochem major here. In any event, sometimes it is ok to venture outside of the box of grammatical convention and to use a little poetic license in a blog reply, isn't it?!?!?!?
Lastly, you have failed to engage in any relevant discussions with me for reasons that we all instinctively know why. It is your stuborness and overt brainwashing that keeps you in this dismal mind-set. Your government has been lying to you. Be a real patriot and demand answers
What is it that you don't understand about two fully fueled jetliners traveling at 200 MPH smashing directly into buildings and exploding causing them to burn and disintegrate?
HELLO!!!???
And the suicidal radical islamist terrorist operators of those highjacked planes admitting that they did it in the name of their cause and the orchestrator of the whole affair boasting to the world about its success?
Jeez Louise.
Stop! STOP! STTTOPPPPPP!!!!!!!!
Here we g...
I am talking about scientific issues. If it is true, for example, that kerosene burns at 820C under optimum conditions, how come the steel beams of the twin towers – whose melting point is supposed to be about 1,480C – would snap through at the same time? (They collapsed in 8.1 and 10 seconds.) What about the third tower – the so-called World Trade Centre Building 7 (or the Salmon Brothers Building) – which collapsed in 6.6 seconds in its own footprint at 5.20pm on 11 September? Why did it so neatly fall to the ground when no aircraft had hit it? The American National Institute of Standards and Technology was instructed to investigate the cause of the destruction of all three buildings. They have not yet reported on WTC 7. Two prominent American professors of mechanical engineering – very definitely not in the “raver” bracket – are now legally challenging the terms of reference of this final report on the grounds that it could be “fraudulent or deceptive”.
Journalistically, there were many odd things about 9/11. Initial reports of reporters that they heard “explosions” in the towers – which could well have been the beams cracking – are easy to dismiss. Less so the report that the body of a female air crew member was found in a Manhattan street with her hands bound. OK, so let’s claim that was just hearsay reporting at the time, just as the CIA’s list of Arab suicide-hijackers, which included three men who were – and still are – very much alive and living in the Middle East, was an initial intelligence error.
I am increasingly troubled at the inconsistencies in the official narrative of 9/11. It’s not just the obvious non sequiturs: where are the aircraft parts (engines, etc) from the attack on the Pentagon? Why have the officials involved in the United 93 flight (which crashed in Pennsylvania) been muzzled? Why did flight 93’s debris spread over miles when it was supposed to have crashed in one piece in a field?
Lastly, if one REALLY will take the time to look, they have no choice but to agree with the numerous flood of CIA and military personell that are coming out of the woodwork that say EMPHATICALLY the 9-11 commision report is a FKING JOKE! And that puts it MILDLY. While I don’t think it can be proven YET that the Israeli LOYALISTS in our own government and their shills and whores actually PULLED THE 9-11 trigger it is QUITE safe to say they AT THE LEAST allowed it to occur and aided and abetted it. Thank GOD there are some TRUE Patriots left in our Intelligence agencies and Military that won’t take the destruction of this GREAT country lying down and they WILL honor their PLEDGE to the U.S. constitution to PROTECT this country from High ranking assholes in our OWN GUberment that are selling out their own country. Wise up pal, people are PISSED they are closing in on The Truth, and even the Bush/Cheney martial Law wet dream that they may try and initiate STILL with ANOTHER False flag may not be enough to turn the tide of TRUE PATRIOTISM and LOVE of this country against TRAITORS!!!!!!! WAKE UP
That's what I thought...
Isn't it enough that you're convinced numbnuts? Go, the f#$k, away.
