[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It depends on what your ultimate goal is. If your goal is a system where no-one is getting more handouts than anyone else, doing nothing (not even subsidizing housing) is a fine idea. But if your goal is for everyone--including the rich--to feel secure in their city, and for the government not to be wasting money, spending more on additional services may well be a good investment. [/quote] No, there's at least one or more other components you're leaving out. If our goal is for every DC resident to feel secure in their city, the simple answer is to let the market take its course, and allow the rising costs of housing to result in an all middle- and upper-middle class neighborhood, since that demographic is responsible for roughly .00000000001% of street crime. Obviously there's a middle ground between those two positions.[/quote]
