Might as well say "the place for the servants".

The only ones who truly oppose such a societal arrangement are the ones on the bottom of it. | |

My mother's house is in a neighborhood where the houses are being bought up and put up for rent. And many of the people are coming from the projects on vouchers. The result, two murders, police sirens all the time, kids up and down the streets yelling at all times of the day and night, and VERY unkempt yards. It's scary the change that is coming over the place.

That proves that it's not just a black and white thing. | |

That's because our own lower class that live in ghettos don't generally work for a living. | |

Unfortunately it never works. When the "vouchered" poor move in, the neighborhood quickly turns to piss. | |

My mother is STILL working. Now she wants to move.
Depressed housing market and a neighborhood in "transition". She's in trouble.
