Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Housing: Federal Policies and Programs, by John C. Weicher, focuses on the two main purposes of government housing policy: enabling the poor to live in decent housing and increasing the opportunities for homeownership for lower- and middle-income groups. The author reviews the programs devised to improve the housing of the poor since 1937 and finds that the long-standing emphasis on building new housing has been inordinately expensive. The typical public housing apartment now costs almost as much as the typical new home, and the monthly subsidies, if given directly to the poor, would enable them to rent virtually any privately built new apartment. The author concludes that most of the poor can find decent housing at much lower cost in existing privately owned housing.Homeownership is popularly thought to be a 'fading dream' for many American families, but the author finds that, in fact, homeownership has been increasing rapidly. He evaluates a number of proposals intended to make homeownership more accessible and concludes that most of them would provide subsidies to families that can afford to buy homes and, indeed, are already doing so in substantial numbers.…

Zustand: Sehr gut. Zustand: Sehr gut | Seiten: 348 | Sprache: Englisch | Produktart: Bücher | Since Franklin D. Roosevelt's New Deal, American housing policy has focused on building homes for the poor. But seventy-five years of federal housing projects have not significantly ameliorated crime, decreased unemployment, or improved health; recent reforms have failed to revitalize low-income neighborhoods or stimulate the economy. To be successful in the twenty-first century, American housing policy must stop reinventing failed programs. Housing Policy at a Crossroads: The Why, How, and Who of Assistance Programs provides a comprehensive survey of past low-income housing programs, including public and subsidized housing, tax credits for developers, and block grants for state and local governments. John C. Weicher's comparative analysis of these programs yields several key conclusions: Affordability, not quality, is the most pressing challenge for housing policy today; of all the housing programs, vouchers have provided the most choice for the poor at the lowest cost to the taxpayer; because vouchers are much less expensive than public or subsidized housing, future subsidized projects would be an inefficient use of resources; vouchers should be offered only to the poorest members of society, ensuring that aid is available to those who need it most. At once a history of housing policy, a guide to issues confronting policymakers, and a case for vouchers as the cheapest, most effective solution, Housing Policy at a Crossroads is a timely warning that reinventing failed building programs would be a very costly wrong turn for America. …
