Which of the following best describes the problem with the Section 8 housing program?
a. Direct access to an apartment in a public housing facility is faster and easier.
b. Most renters prefer the program to make direct payment to apartment owners willing to rent to them.
c. Section 8 housing is essentially slum housing, and no one wants to live there.
d. Supply is vastly less than the demand.
ANS: D
Although these programs are intended to alleviate housing problems for low-income renters, the demand for these assisted housing programs has far exceeded the supply. Section 8 housing does not provide direct access to an apartment in a public housing facility or provide payment directly from the program to apartment owners. Section 8 housing provides affordable housing through the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development, and is not slum housing.
