i ask myself, am i a gentrifier? i say i've always been one step ahead of the developers, but others were one step ahead of me. everyone's involved in gentrification. the top predators, the top of the gentrification food chain, has been planning this phase, obamaland, for years. it's well underway, looming and engulphing property long before the future tower and the swank hotel and the golf course. the top gentrifiers could live anywhere, but they want the prime realty, near the water, near the hotel, near the museum, near the golf course, they want the best real estate, and if that is public land, they will confiscate.
