OK, let's do that. Who is going to pay for it? All the poor people the state shoehorned into philly?
I think you're being shortsighted. To help you see things more clearly I'm going to get the folks who pushed the Mt. Laurel cases in NJ to get similar cases moving in PA. That way the burbs get their "fair share" of low income residents in their communities. Philly will export enough poor residents such that it's overall social services related burden decreases sufficiently that we no longer need any state money. Then the burbanites can stop complaining about philly. Looks like a "win win" from here.
