Reader says , “Fair Share Housing Center hates the suburbs and is on a mission to destroy them”

“This landmark settlement agreement will give working families, particularly people of color, the chance to move into one of America’s wealthiest towns,” – this my friends is how socialism works. That’s how many eastern countries were ruined during 30-40 years of communism after WWII. The rich must quit their hard earned privilege of living in nice areas and must make way and share their wealth with the poor. The gap must disappear and all should should come down to leaving the same quality of life. Look at their language also. They purposely promote division by mentioning people of color. This is pure Marxist ideology . FSHA is a scary organization and NJ is under their heel. To me it feels like Fair Share Housing Center hates the suburbs and is on a mission to destroy them. Bolsheviks were not much different.
