"The government, on it's own, or as agent for a corporation, has a long history of tearing down neighborhoods, several city blocks at a time."

Sure they do. But they've had a plan as to what they are going to do with the real estate
that is being leveled, ie auto plant. Is there a plan that I haven't heard of yet, by the
current regime, to raze dilapidated neighborhoods, and replace the housing stock with
affordable housing for working-class people ?? Maybe it was deep withing the OBBB, lol, I just can't see that happening, but I'll keep an open mind.

But a National Policy, such as occurred after WWII, to build affordable housing would be a popular policy. Trump's Dad made his fortune building housing for all of the returning soldiers after WWII. Lots of complaints that the housing was substandard in quality. But it was a Government Policy that Trump must surely be aware of, seeing as that is how he got his start in RE, collecting rents for his Dad.

This is all just a storyline right now, until I hear of bulldozers hitting the slums of Baltimore, this is all just another TACO event waiting to happen.
