Gross calls what’s happening an “economic ethnic cleansing.”

Jesus. He’s comparing people being paid to move out to genocide.

That might be a tad overboard.

"Ethnic cleansing" doesn't mean the same thing as "genocide".

If, say, Poland decided next week to deport everyone with a German surname from the country, that would qualify as ethnic cleansing, even though it is clearly not genocide because no one was killed.
