you've never been in a building that has section 8 units then

You make a building where some of the units are market rate and others are geared to income. Ultimately you provide decent (not top end just decent) affordable houseing for people who could otherwise live in shit holes or on the street.]
ANY apartment can be a section 8 unit, they get an identical unit to what i pay thru the nose for... i have to jump thru hoop to move into a place - including meeting a specific income requirement and other bullshit, when a person moving into a section 8 unit just has to be poor.

I'll never be able to convince a liberal why this is a bad thing - you'll never be able to convince me that this is a good thing. Same reason why it irks me that the asshole kicking the seat on the plane behind me got his seat for half of what I am paying -- it irks me that the asshole who only knows super loud volume wise lives under me and pays less than what half of what I pay - it's not right.
