    Instead the DINKS (Dual Income No Kids) are running 
    minorities out of their neighborhoods by bidding up the 
    price of the land.

Uhh, that's pretty much the plan. The landowners in places like SF and DC want to watch their holdings achieve lower Manhattan valuations. The history of NYC through the 90s proved the way you do that is demographic transformation.
