Yeah, because they're not really trying to improve the lives of people there, what they're doing is gentrifying the areas and forcing the poorer people out. I'm not advocating forcing the poor out to make the area more middle-class, I'm advocating helping the poor so that they are no longer poor.

Yes, but how do you do that? You can't. Gentrification is a natural order. There is no way for it to not happen.

If a poor area improves itself, people with more money will move in. Renters will see that they can raise prices and will, thus forcing out the poorer people. It's a natural thing that can't be stopped.

Same as those trying to stop the pay gap. There will always be rich and poor people. You can't stop that.

You must not know what my political beliefs are:
