I hate to be the downer but as a section 8 recipient who is susceptible to displacement, I've given up trying to rationalize some people's mentality on this forum. It's never been new to me since I was a kid that many people in the US are callous towards public housing recipients and those who live below the poverty line.
I always thought that the hate was coming from the suburbs and Downstate, but this forum has showed me that even people in the city see us as a problem.
