摘要

If katrina has demolished hopes for reforming Medicaid, it has at least stirred up debate about housing policy. In all, Ka-trina destroyed or damaged roughly 300,000 homes. According to the National Low Income Housing Coalition (NLIHC), around 70% of these were occupied by low-income households (ie, ones earning less than $40,800 in New Orleans and below $32,560 in Mississippi). Hurricane Rita is expected to cause further carnage. The administration's immediate answer—to buy up trailer parks to house the newly homeless-looks an unsatisfactory stop-gap. Many of the parks are a long way from any potential source of employment. Horror stories are circulating about "FEMA City" in Florida, where 1,500 people displaced by Hurricane Charley in August 2004 are still living in 500 trailers. They can't afford to live in the new houses rebuilt on the sites of their old homes. So they fester in a crime-ridden ghetto.
