The question I have for all of you is who is going to make the determination as to who is permitted and not permitted to live where? And are you going to have compulsory acceptance of the vouchers? Seems to me you would have to in order for this to work. Also seems to me to be a taking, but as has been documented here before I'm no con law scholar.

I don't know what y'all are talking about. I'm talking about making sure that Section 8 vouchers are accepted all over a city, so that poor people don't all end up together in a few neighborhoods. My point -- and it's hardly original with me -- is that neighborhoods work better when they have a variety of uses.
