Wonder if this obvious divide plays into some group's vocal opposition of inner-city gentrification...hard to keep folks down if there are jobs and economic opportunity coming to a blighted neighborhood near you.
Gentrification...can calls for lower taxes, less government and respect for private property rights be far behind...
Divide and conquer...
...oh, and the dead vote democrat.
