It almost as if America could better allocate their federal budget to start cleaning up some inner city areas.
There's ample research out there that shows that a person who owns his/her home is much more likely to maintain it. The "throw more money at it and it will get better" approach doesn't actually work.
For example, look at research on underperforming school districts. It was shown that just giving them more money doesn't actually translate to better scores.
Here's somewhat recent research on education and inequality if you're interested.
