US Government May Bulldoze 50 Cities; Create More Green Space

There is a plan in Flint to shrink the city by bulldozing areas and returning them to nature and the federal government is looking at the idea for other US cities.

I have no objection to the idea myself. If a local government wants to bulldoze some properties that are vacant and have been for years, so be it. There are areas near me that would probably benefit from a good bulldozing. The only thing that concerns me is the federal government looking into this.

What do you think of the idea?
