Federal programs have represented, at best, a series of ad hoc, piece-meal attempts to address a highly complex situation. Funding levels have been inadequate and there has never been any strong commitment to economic development on a meaningful scale. We have experienced a series of small, unconnected programs. In addition to HUD programs, so-called community development programs can be found at the Departments of Labor, Agriculture, Treasury, and the Economic Development Agency. But after two decades of poverty programs, revitalization efforts, and other efforts Blacks and other low income urban residents still, for the most part, live in substandard, segregated, and costly housing in conditions significantly worse than most other Americans
