Pro or con, the very idea is stupid.

 

To think this is the level of government we have?!?

 

I can't wait for the election rhetoric to come. It will be epic.

 

Sheeple will be incised over some damn thing.

That part about housing has been around for a while. Several states already take part in distributed housing. The power of the Fed is the threat of cutting off funding to the states. So at some point the states will just refuse, and take care of themselves without outside help. Not sure which ones, but some states have done so or threatened to do so.

 

That threat has real power, if it's a state that contributes more to the Fed than it receives.

Good intentions aside, tactics like this threaten to break the states apart.

 

And begging the question, won't this result in local governments, corporations and lenders doing the same thing? To either police their own house or to enable their ability to hide? We create our own monsters....
