They are intended to increase the availability of affordable housing and improve the quality of low-income housing, while avoiding problems associated with concentrated subsidized housing. Many scattered-site units are built to be similar in appearance to other homes in the neighborhood to somewhat mask the financial stature of tenants and reduce the stigma associated with p The destruction of deteriorating buildings to make room for public housing often created problems in adjacent neighborhoods. An excellent example of this phenomenon can be found in Brooklyn. When blocks of slums in the Brownsville district were cleared to make room for public housing in the 1920s, thousands of displaced families moved into the neighboring district of East New York, which at that time was a predominantly white, middle-class area with a stable economy. The sudden influx of large, lower-income black and Hispanic families from Brownsville strained the physical and social services of the community.
The industrial revolution affected the average workers both positively and negatively. With the invention of new machinery and new methods of transportation, the industrial revolution provides people with jobs and dwelling.

Nicholas Bloom, Author of Public Housing that Worked, acknowledges the skepticism of most Americans in saying,“Across the country public housing projects are being demolished at a record pace largely because most Americans believe that public housing has no chance of succeeding.” So why is public housing failing? And what will be done before thousands more Americans are left homeless. Public housing has created reliance on the government, unsafe living conditions, and large concentrations of poverty. Everyday events and common occurrences inside public housing would shock many, due to the high volume of violence. Also shocking is the high prevalence of health issues.
Robber Barons People who have been considered “Captains of Industry” have also been given the title “Robber Barons”. Is there really a difference in the two? While Robber Barons have been known to take as many resources as they can from an area they are also known for giving little to those who help them become rich. Often times they come in with flowing promises of better homes and cleaner cities to entice workers to live there. However, many workers find that does not happen.

Therefore manufacturers make bigger profit. As well as that, there are fewer factory regulations at sweatshops because the health and safety regulations aren’t as important in LEDC’s, that way it makes it cheaper to run the factory. As well as that, renting and buying the factory is cheaper too because the economy of LEDCS are weak the demand of buying property is low because not many people can afford it therefore buildings and houses are worth less because of low demand.

Because LEDCs have a weak economy, there are very few
In the past having for example a bedroom from Fino showed to the world that you were very quality sensitive however as time passed, Fino started to get more affordable items. This may be due to the fact that it wasn't making enough sales since only a limited number of people could have bought Fino furniture.

Granite there is not a lof of people that think this way, but from hearing people say that, the idea is definitely out there. Another limitation would be that since Mills wants to provide the greatest happiness for the largest amount of people concerned, there would be a problem with people not looking as hard for jobs especially in the inner cities, where being on welfare is common. There would be people content with having a welfare check given to them every week and also receiving health care along with it and there would be less people looking for jobs, since they have both of those necessities given to them. Though there are not a lot of limitations that come with Mills theory on healthcare, the few that do are vital in the decision making process of weather the reformation of healthcare for every
