Does Obama's Second Term agenda Includes an "Regionalism" income equalization plan.Via a massive redistribution of suburban tax money back to the cities?

President Obama is not a fan of America’s suburbs. Indeed, he intends to abolish them. With suburban voters set to be the swing constituency of the 2012 election, the administration’s plans for this segment of the electorate deserve scrutiny. Obama is a longtime supporter of “regionalism,” the idea that the suburbs should be folded into the cities, merging schools, housing, transportation, and above all taxation. To this end, the president has already put programs in place designed to push the country toward a sweeping social transformation in a possible second term. The goal: income equalization via a massive redistribution of suburban tax money to the cities.

Obama’s plans to undercut the political and economic independence of America’s suburbs reach back decades. The community organizers who trained him in the mid-1980s blamed the plight of cities on taxpayer “flight” to suburbia. Beginning in the mid-1990s, Obama’s mentors at the Gamaliel Foundation (a community-organizing network Obama helped found) formally dedicated their efforts to the budding fight against suburban “sprawl.” From his positions on the boards of a couple of left-leaning Chicago foundations, Obama channeled substantial financial support to these efforts. On entering politics, he served as a dedicated ally of his mentors’ anti-suburban activism.


The alliance endures. One of Obama’s original trainers, Mike Kruglik, has hived off a new organization called Building One America, which continues Gamaliel’s anti-suburban crusade under another name. Kruglik and his close allies, David Rusk and Myron Orfield, intellectual leaders of the “anti-sprawl” movement, have been quietly working with the Obama administration for years on an ambitious program of social reform.

In July of 2011, Kruglik’s Building One America held a conference at the White House. Orfield and Rusk made presentations, and afterwards Kruglik personally met with the president in the Oval Office. The ultimate goal of the movement led by Kruglik, Rusk, and Orfield is quite literally to abolish the suburbs. Knowing that this could never happen through outright annexation by nearby cities, they’ve developed ways to coax suburbs to slowly forfeit their independence.

One approach is to force suburban residents into densely packed cities by blocking development on the outskirts of metropolitan areas, and by discouraging driving with a blizzard of taxes, fees, and regulations. Step two is to move the poor out of cities by imposing low-income-housing quotas on development in middle-class suburbs. Step three is to export the controversial “regional tax-base sharing” scheme currently in place in the Minneapolis–St. Paul area to the rest of the country. Under this program, a portion of suburban tax money flows into a common regional pot, which is then effectively redistributed to urban, and a few less well-off “inner-ring” suburban, municipalities.

The Obama administration, stocked with “regionalist” appointees, has been advancing this ambitious plan quietly for the past four years. Efforts to discourage driving and to press development into densely packed cities are justified by reference to fears of global warming. Leaders of the crusade against “sprawl” very consciously use environmental concerns as a cover for their redistributive schemes.

The centerpiece of the Obama administration’s anti-suburban plans is a little-known and seemingly modest program called the Sustainable Communities Initiative. The “regional planning grants” funded under this initiative — many of them in battleground states like Florida, Virginia, and Ohio — are set to recommend redistributive policies, as well as transportation and development plans, designed to undercut America’s suburbs. Few have noticed this because the program’s goals are muffled in the impenetrable jargon of “sustainability,” while its recommendations are to be unveiled only in a possible second Obama term.

    I can see it happening if for no other reason than he gets back into office, and if he has Reid and Pelosi with him, increases dem leads in House and Senate, he has become an Ace at using Executive Orders to bypass everything. Lame duck pres with a red pen, executive orders, no one to answer to - look out America, we will be "fundamentally changed" into some place you won't know.

    Although a second term for Obama is a scary thought, I don't think regionalism is the top threat. I have no doubt he would like to do such a thing. But states will not allow it. Democrats would become an endangered species at the state and local level.

    Consider Obamacare. Obama blew all of his political capital on something the majority of people don't like, and then let it become a distraction for his entire term. Regionalism would be more of the same.

    The best way to avoid the disaster of Obama's second term agenda is to vote him out in November.

    It is already underway in the First Suburbs group surrounding Phila. The First Suburbs has partnered with Build One PA, an arm of this new Chicago group Build One America. They count on you not believing it is possible, while they work tirelessly in that direction. Maybe you do not see this type of progressive activity in your neighborhood, good :). Glad some places are still part of our Republic.

    Nope...I support the freedom to move away from a crappy urban areas.And to move to another county where there are still good schools,safe streets & relatively honest politicians.

    And not have the Federal Government deem that action as unjust for the sorry urban county that was left behind.And punish the suburban counties by raiding their tax base.And imposing no growth policies on those counties,too!

    If the mayors & consul men & women of the urban counties can raid the tax base of adjacent suburban counties.They will continue with all the reckless spending policies that ran everybody off in the first place!

    It is ashame they way so many progressive exploit the weaker in our society. I applaud any low income family or individual who moves out to the burbs on their on accord. When it is forced, that is the problem. I also love how the urban, gov loving elite types curse the burbs, when it was gov that built the fed highway system that allowed people to move out into the countryside and prosper. I hope city folks continue this migration. :)

    You only have to look at the 2008 Presidential Map to see why this massive redistribution of suburban tax money back to the cities could be a reality.As part of a pay-back to Obama's voter base in those urban counties.
