LOL! I guess I didn’t state explicitly that by “neighborhood” I meant a community of people in a location and not the mere location itself. Pricing the poor out of a zip code and replacing them with lobbyists and attorneys really wasn’t my intent – but I give you credit for thinking outside the box.

My opinion of “corporate welfare” is that it is a rhetorical terms for what amounts to either a misguided attempt to manage the economy or a slimy quid pro quo. I am opposed to both. I don’t think the government is competent enough handle the former, and if I don’t think the government should be in the business of distributing wealth I certainly don’t think it should be in the business of concentrating it either.
