Washington Star. Denver Post. Boton Herald American. and Providence JournalBulletin have all carried stories under headlines such as "Billion Dollar Nightmare." "Poor Last in Line for Housing Assistance." "Taj Mahal in New York Symptom for Rent Subsidy Headaches." "Illegal Aliens Draw Housing Aid While U.S. Citizens Wait." and "Housing and Politics. a Game Everyone Wins Except the Taxpayers and the Needy." These and other reports too numerous to mention shock the conscience of thoughtful people. And yet I think most of us instinctively. when we see scare headlines like these. tend to discount them. we feel the situation really cannot be so alarming.
