SE Wisconsin apartheid is suburban money-maker, embarrassment

Thanks to Milwaukee Journal Sentinel investigative reporters for exposing the shameful realities of complex ownership connections between an upscale absentee landlord who lives in tony River Hills and the out-of-code rental properties he owns in Milwaukee's lower-income and heavily-minority central city.

I've argued for years that there are structural outside regional inequities at work which contribute to Milwaukee's central city poverty; the Journal Sentinel story puts a face on the victims and on one of the beneficiaries.

Well done.
