Nationally, yes. I think who you responded to wasn't talking nationally but in specific localities.

Practically every location nationally has decreased in crime since the 1970s. Nationally means every place in the nation.....

Also, that person's opinion I doubt is based on actual crime statistics over the past 40 years since HCV has been put into place. More than likely just an emotional over exaggeration.

It's nice, and I suppose informative, to link section 8 housing with crime using statistics. A quicker and cheaper way to do it is drive in and have a look. It takes about 10 minutes to see that Section 8 destroys lives in more ways than you can count.

So we see justice in an unfortunate way. Immoral acts (redistribution of wealth, making housing a false "right") lead to immorality. The fact that we socialize the immoral act (theft) and declare it policy, fails to overcome reality.

Section 8 welfare is actually Deathfare. It is a form of spiritual genocide where the will to survive is systematically short-circuited. It turns out that stealing stuff from those who have it, to give to those who need it, is, of course, wrong in theory and in principle. But when you actually do it, magic! Bad stuff happens! Poverty is proliferated, the underclass is held down. Why? Reality. When stuff taken from other people is handed over to the weak, they stay weak, and fail to act in their own best interest. So except for the few standouts who won't live that way due to strong personal character, you get the bell curve - where the majority suck at the tit, live minimally, and fail to grow and progress.

Birds kick their young out of the nest and into danger for a good reason. That's how living things are supposed to sustain. Through self-generated and self-directed action. Section 8 and Deathfare rob people of the opportunity to act for their own survival, which, interestingly, KILLS THEM!

Then, you get weak people, devoid of self-respect, and devoid of respect from others, who lapse into addictions and crime and irresponsible state supported reproduction. Nobody wants to be around them and you have to design excruciatingly byzantine scams and schemes like section 8 to physically move them where they are not wanted. Now you have the Obama administration seeking to take over zoning power to FORCE PEOPLE INTO AREAS WHERE THEY CANNOT AFFORD TO LIVE. As if sticking them with the productive people will just spread the virtue by osmosis. Which in turn causes what you would expect, more flight from the productive people to escape the chaos.

This is what section 8 causes, and this is was the only possible end game. When you hand people free stuff confiscated from others, you destroy them.
