[quote=Anonymous]I think this article is a bit of a stretch casting racism as a major factor. I believe it is one of many factors with the main one being rising affluence. People have private pools because they can afford them and are more convenient. Of course this leads to less interest and investment in public pools as they are used less. If half the houses have their own pools you can be sure they are less interested in paying for a public pool, thus underinvestment leading to even less use and it snowballs from there.[/quote]
