I watched the video at the link above.

And as I watched, I thought...
... how much different was a dwelling like this from those in which poor white folks of that time lived...?

I used to be a home bound instructor for students too ill to attend school. Translated that means I brought work to and rarely recieved work from teen girls on their legally required maternity leave from high school. But I digress. I have been in a lot of subsidized housing, and that tour is alsmost exactly the same as those who choose to be slaves to the government. In fact, only two things are different with that scenario. 1. There is no thermostat. 2. It's clean and the beds are made.

Housing at Belvoir had gone downhill by 1967.
