"I can also recount several instances where politicians have made these pie in the sky promises to the poor only to see them never even come close to realization.

Most of the neirghborhoods revitalized near downtown were due to natural gentrificaiton, not by some magic wand waved by a suit in city hall." —Anon [The Neighborhoods]
