The Atlantic Monthly article by Hanna Rosin about how tearing down inner city housing projects just disperses crime to the suburbs is now online.

Second: You can make a tax deductible contribution via VDARE by clicking here. (Paypal and credit cards accepted, including recurring "subscription" donations.) UPDATE: Don't try this at the moment.
Third: send money via the Paypal-like Google Wallet to my Gmail address (that's isteveslrATgmail.com -- replace the AT with a @). (Non-tax deductible.)
Here's the Google Wallet FAQ. From it: "You will need to have (or sign up for) Google Wallet to send or receive money. If you have ever purchased anything on Google Play, then you most likely already have a Google Wallet. If you do not yet have a Google Wallet, don’t worry, the process is simple: go to wallet.google.com and follow the steps." You probably already have a Google ID and password, which Google Wallet uses, so signing up Wallet is pretty painless.
You can put money into your Google Wallet Balance from your bank account and send it with no service fee.
Or you can send money via credit card (Visa, MasterCard, AmEx, Discover) with the industry-standard 2.9% fee. (You don't need to put money into your Google Wallet Balance to do this.)
Google Wallet works from both a website and a smartphone app (Android and iPhone -- the Google Wallet app is currently available only in the U.S., but the Google Wallet website can be used in 160 countries).
Or, once you sign up with Google Wallet, you can simply send money via credit card, bank transfer, or Wallet Balance as an attachment from Google's free Gmail email service. Here's how to do it.

Just tell Chase QuickPay to send the money to my ancient AOL email address (steveslrATaol.com -- replace the AT with the usual @). If Chase asks for the name on my account, it's Steven Sailer with an n at the end of Steven. (Non-tax deductible.)

thanks for the link.. Here is a quote that denies facts flatly and accuses the researchers of being criminal.
Earlier this year, Betts presented her findings to city leaders, including Robert Lipscomb, the head of the Memphis Housing Authority. From what Lipscomb said to me, he’s still not moved. “You’ve already marginalized people and told them they have to move out,” he told me irritably, just as he’s told Betts. “Now you’re saying they moved somewhere else and created all these problems? That’s a really, really unfair assessment. You’re putting a big burden on people who have been too burdened already, and to me that’s, quote-unquote, criminal.”
That was a good article but I wish the author talked with the people affected by the incoming section 8ers into the new neighborhood.
Have the people who were living in the existing neighborhoods fled from the new arrivals? I'm sure they have.
E. Michael Jones has a good book called "The Slaughter of The Cities." He makes the argument that the WASP elites wished to break up Catholic voting blocs in the big cities like Phila, Chicago, Detroit. The WASPS colluded with the civil rights loving jewish community to use the blacks as a tool to force white ethnics to the suburbs.
Now it is the reverse. Push out the blacks from the cities so that yuppies can live the urban renaissance in relative safety.
Rather than tear down the housing projects and spend money relocating the project-dwellers, why not nip the problem in the bud?
We could pay the ghetto-dwellers $35k to get their tubes tied, less if they have already had kids. It would be completely voluntary and each participant would be compensated for the loss of descendants.
Anon -- blaming the "Jews" is a useful exercise in scapegoating but it does not explain the broader pattern of movement.
People started moving out to the Suburbs immediately in the Post-War era because of cheap credit, increasing prices, and the Auto and highway system.
It gave families a backyard and better schools, separation from urban crime. Desegration and the death of Jim Crow was accomplished by whites, particularly southern whites, already living in places where there were no blacks.
For example, in New Orleans 1948-1960, most of the White working/middle class moved out of the city to places like Metarie, or the North Shore, or Jefferson Parish. They had more land, less corruption/crime, and better quality of life with better/newer schools. They were not "block-busted" they moved out because they got a better deal elsewhere.
Not all suburbs are equal. What about those with a high density of NRA stickers affixed to pickups? Would those repel the Section Eighters, or would the lower housing costs attract them?
This right-wing suburb-hater is actually happy to see the scum of the earth head out to the Levittowns. The jewels of the cities are wasted on them-- such as real churches, instead of oil cans. Opera houses, rather than "cineplexes".
A federal judge here in Dallas forced the Dallas Housing Authority to build Section 8 housing in a middle class neighborhood on the very north end of the city.
Result: gang shootings in the parking lot of the discount store across the boulevard.
Oh yeah, to improve educational opportunities there's a brand new school nearby that boasts "college preparatory" on the facade.
Rest assured it is not St. Mark's, which is where actor Tommy Lee Jones attended high school. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/St._Mark's_School_of_Texas
I'm sure some Catholic organized crime is why the WASP's had to leave their cities in the first place.
Really? I think you have causation all messed. It was the presence Catholic organized crime (I guess that means Italian and Irish mobs) that made many city neighborhoods safe for law abiding citizens to live in. That is, until Robert Kennedy's Justice Department Uncle Sam declaring war on organized crime. Prior to the creation of the Organized Crime Strike Force and the enactment of the RICO act, mob bosses kept their neighborhoods safe for "civilians" in order to keep the heat of public attention away from their mostly victimless crime activities. Even dirty cops have to act when the newspapers and politicians get riled up by crimes committed law abiding citizens.
Once organized crime started losing its war against the FBI, disorganized crime filled the vacuum and the civilians moved away to the suburbs.
Fifty years without an unpleasant encounter with a mafioso; I can't say the same about Obamites.
If anyone's interested, Lucianne Goldberg is fronting the article this weekend:
American Murder Mystery - Highly recommended weekend read. You will see why.
Note, though, that Lucianne's threads last for only about 72 hours before they're scrubbed.
