That is, in fact, a full 29 percent of the city cannot afford decent shelter. We found that the Housing Authority has a tremendous backlog. They're paying catch-up, which they'll never do. We found six out of ten dwelling units in the low and moderate income areas are substandard. We discovered that Houston is overcrowded, more overcrowding than New York City. We discovered that. Houses are being abandoned every day, and in fact, we might have 1,800 dwelling units abandoned every year. And yet, given all of these enormous circumstances, we also have prejudice. Many people are paying more than they should for substandard housing because they are Mexican-American. Many people aren't getting access to decent housing because their black. And more people are coming to town. We're expecting almost 900,000 people to come in the next decade. Where are they going to live? We find that the middle income is in trouble too. The builders can't build housing that is cheap enough to meet their expectations. We find the cost of money is going up. There are a whole series of factors. So the middle income is coming back into the inner city. And where are they going? They're going to neighborhoods that have been traditionally low income or moderate income. And so we find that the low income dweller is losing out everywhere you look at it. He's losing his housing. No new housing is being provided. He's overcrowded. He's being overcharged.

And in that sense, the inner city residents have benefited tremendously, much disproportionately to the outer areas. They've gotten a lot more. But if we didn't have the federal dollars, what would happen then? We would be in bad trouble. There's no question that I would say that taxes need to be raised. On the other hand as a political scientist I'm aware of the pulse of the public right now which is definitely anti-government and until there's some sort of translation in the public's mind of the linkage between more money and better services then it's going to continue to be like this and as you suggest I think it's be for the worse.","format":"text/plain"},"target":"https://uoregon.aviaryplatform.com/collections/236/collection_resources/14107/file/272614#t=1548.97,1603.48"},{"id":"https://uoregon.aviaryplatform.com/collections/236/collection_resources/14107/file/272614/transcript/79608/annotation/104","type":"Annotation","motivation":"transcribing","body":{"type":"TextualBody","value":"\u003cstrong\u003eSpeaker 34:\u003c/strong\u003e You know, we pride ourselves in our low-spend, low-tax philosophy, and there's no question who gets hurt under that system. The rich are able to pay for private patrol services, for extra garbage collections, for gardeners that take care of city property in their area, and it's the poor areas that have the deteriorating schools, the deteriorated garbage collection, and so on. And it's back to the whole philosophy of the city of Houston that has worked well when this was a small. Rapidly growing city with tremendous open spaces and so on, it's a philosophy that is just not going to work and can't work in a city of a million and a half going on three million and and in conditions of the modern world.","format":"text/plain"},"target":"https://uoregon.aviaryplatform.com/collections/236/collection_resources/14107/file/272614#t=1604.88,1647.51"},{"id":"https://uoregon.aviaryplatform.com/collections/236/collection_resources/14107/file/272614/transcript/79608/annotation/105","type":"Annotation","motivation":"transcribing","body":{"type":"TextualBody","value":"\u003cstrong\u003eSpeaker 2:\u003c/strong\u003e We're making a documentary about Houston's housing crisis.
