 Hope on Housing Policy by Howard Husock
The tenant portion of rent is capped at 30 percent of their income, which in effect means that many of these low-income Section-8 families pay miniscule amounts of rent.
Since households must re-qualify for the program every year, if dirt-poor voucher families want to keep receiving housing aid or avoid paying more in rent, they need to keep their income way below the regional median—that is, they need to avoid work, or at least avoid reporting income.
The new plan frees local housing authorities to set flat rents, so that households won’t be discouraged from boosting their incomes, and to make deals that provide declining amounts of assistance over the life of a lease—and even to impose overall time limits.
