On Welfare & Poverty: Address housing crisis by assisting cities & homebuyers

Warren's most intriguing plans concern housing. High rents in productive cities limit opportunity and economic growth. Warren proposes to coax cities into changing restrictive development rules for a share of a large pot of money--$10B in total--while also funding large public-housing developments. She also wants the federal government to assist first-time homebuyers in formerly segregated neighborhoods. Source: The Economist "Wonkish Populism," on 2020 Democratic primary Feb 9, 2019
