Actually I had heard of this, in Detroit in fact there is some indication they may even
begin to engage in urban farming in areas where the concrete is being removed.
There are also plans to push down entire neighbourhoods in Arizona and else where.
The property values are only a small part of it. The banks have to maintain and in
fact insure these dwellings. Some are being taken over by squatters and others that
are involved in crime. There is a whole series of problems going to afflict America
as their wasteful ways and collapsing system takes them from a major power to a
have not nation in the world. To think deregulation did this to them. Not only that they
are worse off than many others in the developed world because they don't have a
safety net to take care of people in events like these. Housing, health, retirement,
consumer debt, infrastructure that is falling apart, and silly people like the Tea Party
wanting to take people back to a mythical simpler time, when all was right on
May berry Street. America is on the verge of change, and I mean serious change.
As they resist any measure of social change they will be forced to accept a heavy
dose of it brought on by the young families in America who will soon have had
enough. Housing is a foundation corner stone of a nation and this is crumbling fast.
