I can't imagine people being pulled out of their homes for "gentrification" purposes, @adamkokesh. They should have a housing solution for that at least, especially for those people who can only afford a certain rent range. If a place becomes better, all people that belong to it should be as well regardless of status, right?
And regarding your question headline, I understand why you use the word "hate", because it seems like the government doesn't care about the poor. Why, because they think the poor have nothing to offer? Or maybe because they can't make a lot from the poor? I guess both.
And it's sad that government officials and politicians always say that they are for the people and by the people, but it seems like they say it because it sounds "heartfelt", and not really do it.
So...I am curious: When politicians have finally earned their place in the government, do they and their principles change? Do they forget what they promised to the people? Or are they carried away by the power that comes with it? Because if this is the case...the government loses its essence.
I think some of them go into it with good intentions but the system is to corrupt to fight so they just end up going with the flow and losing sight of what their purpose was for getting involved.
I see what you mean @sunlit7, because sometimes, if they pursue goodness, fairness and justice, they get persecuted by the evil ones in power, or worst, killed. That's why if they can't take it anymore, they quit. Sad but true. 😥
