341. lappuse - Some people feel that the government in Washington should see to it that every person has a job and a good standard of living.

65. lappuse - However, in ghetto neighborhoods that have experienced a steady outmigration of middle- and working-class families ... the chances are overwhelming that children will seldom interact on a sustained basis with people who are employed or with families that have a steady breadwinner.

Policy analysts should note, however, that the persistent increase in contract rent during a period of substantial new construction suggests that there has been a long-term increase in the rental price of housing capital.

106. lappuse - The Northeast and the West, areas of vigorous economic expansion, have witnessed the sharpest rent hikes during the decade (Exhibit 7). From 1981 to 1987, real gross rents in the West increased by nearly 19 percent, while those in the Northeast rose approximately 17 percent. More modest rent increases occurred in the Midwest.

Policy analysts should note, however, that the persistent increase in contract rent during a period of substantial new construction suggests that there has been a long-term increase in the rental price of housing capital....
189. lappuse - We can no longer afford to approach the longer-range future haphazardly. As the pace of change accelerates, the process of change becomes more complex. Yet, at the same time an extraordinary array of tools and techniques has been developed by which it becomes increasingly possible to project future trends — and thus to make the kind of informed choices which are necessary if we are to establish mastery over the process of change.

Federal poverty definitions define the income required by various types of households to consume adequate levels of housing, food, and other necessities. By this measure, only 2.1 million (or 28 percent) of the nation's 7.5 million poverty-level renter households lived in public housing or other subsidized rental...
